An observational study in Sleep Disturbance and Critical Illness, sponsored by Careggi Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Italy. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2022-07-22.
Sponsored by Careggi Hospital · Observational
Several evidences in the literature suggest sleep interruption in critical care patients. Nowadays, the amount and the quality of sleep phases during the length of stay in the intensive care unit are largely unknown.
In this study, the amount of time spent by the patients in N1, N2 N3 and REM phases during sleep is quantified.
1,780 studies on the registry are indexed under Critical Illness; 442 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 72 is below the median of 140 across 814 observational studies indexed under Critical Illness.

Exclusion Criteria:
age \> 18 years
Device: Sleep Profiler
Patients are observed through a Sleep profiler, routinely used in the intensive care unit (ICU). This device is applied at every patient in the ICU and it acquires EEG, electrooculography, and electromyography from three frontopolar EEG signals.
Sleep N2 phase
describe the percentage of the total sleep time spent by the patient in N2 stage
Time frame: The sleep architecture will be observed during the first night spent in the ICU
Sleep N1 phase
describe the percentage of the total sleep time spent by the patient in N1 stage
Time frame: The sleep architecture will be observed during the first night spent in the ICU
Sleep N3 phase
describe the percentage of the total sleep time spent by the patient in N3 stage
Time frame: The sleep architecture will be observed during the first night spent in the ICU
Sleep REM phase
describe the percentage of the total sleep time spent by the patient in REM stage
Time frame: The sleep architecture will be observed during the first night spent in the ICU
