This study tests an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered sleep improvement program designed for people aged 60+ who have noticed changes in their memory but don't have dementia, and who also struggle with insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep). The goal is to help improve both sleep and thinking skills using technology guided by AI.
This study tests a “dyadic” sleep health approach, meaning it works with both you and your caregiver together. It aims to improve sleep when dementia is causing frequent sleep problems, and to see whether a caregiver-involved plan helps both of you.
This study tests a sleep improvement program for older adults with memory loss and their live-in caregivers. Both partners have sleep problems, and the program aims to help them both sleep better and feel better.
This study looks at how well home sleep apnea testing works for people with cognitive impairment (memory/thinking problems) to help improve outcomes. You may be asked to do a home sleep test (and possibly an in-lab test) and will involve a caregiver if needed.
This trial tests whether playing soft sounds during sleep can boost the effects of a computer-based brain training program in people with Parkinson's disease who have mild memory or thinking issues. If you qualify, you'll use a headband that plays tones while you sleep and do brain exercises for several weeks.
This trial tests an online form of cognitive behavioral therapy (a structured skills-based program) to improve insomnia for people caring for someone with dementia. It may help reduce trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early.
