NCT ID NCT07431970

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study explores whether virtual reality (VR) construction tasks can detect changes in performance caused by lack of sleep. Researchers will enroll 12 participants and have them perform VR tasks after different sleep conditions. The goal is to see if VR can reliably measure sleep-related impairments and distinguish them from the effects of repeated VR use.

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a new way to measure how sleep affects job performance using virtual reality.

What could go wrong

This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 12 people. It is not testing any treatment, and results may not apply to real-world settings.
