What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. It has the effect of improving sleep hygiene.

    The sleep hygiene index is a 5-point Likert-type scale consisting of 13 items, scored from 1 to 5. A score below 26 indicates good sleep hygiene, and a lower score indicates better sleep hygiene.

    Time frame: 10 weeks

  2. It is effective in improving sleep quality.

    The sleep quality index includes 24 questions consisting of 7 components. Evaluation, Each item of the scale is evaluated with 0-3 points. Seven "component" scores are created from nineteen items. The last 5 items are not included in the scoring. The total score has a value between 0-21. High values indicate poor sleep quality and high levels of sleep disturbance. A total score of 5 and above indicates poor sleep quality

    Time frame: 10 weeks

  3. Has an effect on improving the quality of life

    The quality of life scale consists of 36 items in 5 sub-dimensions that measure quality of life specific to kidney disease. Scores in each dimension range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life. A score of "0" indicates the worst health status, while a score of "100" indicates the best health status.

    Time frame: 10 weeks

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Aug 2024 to primary completion in Feb 2025, 6 months.

Of 75 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Sleep Hygiene, half reached primary completion within 8 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 3 and three quarters within 18. This study's 6 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 79 studies reached it within 8 months; a quarter within 4 and three quarters within 18.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Dec 3, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
