Summary

This study tests a special sleep program for people hospitalized after a leg injury that needed surgery. The program includes sleep medicine, melatonin, and sleep tips. Researchers want to see if it helps patients sleep longer and better, and if it reduces the need for strong painkillers. About 30 adults will take part, and their sleep will be tracked with a wrist device.
