Enhancing Sleep Quality for Nursing Home Residents With Dementia - R33 Phase
This trial is testing a structured staff-led program called LOCK — focused on light exposure, activity, and consistent routines — to improve sleep in nursing home residents who already have Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia. Researchers are measuring whether sleep quality actually improves and whether nursing home staff can keep the program running over time. This is a Phase NA study, meaning it is a real-world implementation test, not a standard drug-safety or efficacy phase.
You may qualify if
- Nursing home residents aged >=50 years with an Alzheimer disease or related dementia (ADRD) diagnosis, identified by nursing home staff participating in frontline LOCK sleep huddles as having sleep problems
You're excluded if
- Residents with a high risk of OSA who are not being treated for OSA because actigraph measurements are inaccurate in that population.
- Residents who have a persistent bilateral resting tremor or paralysis in both arms (a subset of persons with Parkinson's disease and related significant tremor-causing diagnoses), due to actigraph measurement inaccuracies
