New ICU sleep therapy aims to reset body clocks in critical illness
NCT ID NCT05551325
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a combination of sleep-promoting and circadian-aligning treatments (a "sleep chronobundle") in 160 critically ill ICU patients. The goal is to see if realigning the body's internal clock can improve sleep quality and metabolism. Participants will receive the bundle during their ICU stay, and researchers will measure changes in heart rate and melatonin levels.
