First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a special type of artificial light that changes throughout the day can improve sleep, body clock function, and overall well-being in frail older adults. Researchers will enroll 300 people over age 65 who are staying in hospital rooms equipped with this dynamic lighting. The goal is to see if the light helps reset their internal clock and leads to better rest and recovery.
