NCT ID NCT07192380
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how working night shifts changes eye movements, attention, and the ability to spot blood clots in lung scans. Forty emergency radiologists will be tested after a night shift and after a good night's rest. They will do eye-tracking tasks, read CT scans, and wear EEG caps to measure brain activity. The goal is to understand how sleep loss affects visual performance and diagnostic accuracy.
