Summary

This study tests whether personalized lifestyle coaching can help emergency medicine residents stay alert and recover better during night shifts. Thirty residents will either receive one-on-one coaching or just a handout on sleep and nutrition. Researchers will track sleep, reaction time, and alertness using a Fitbit and phone tests.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
personalized fatigue-mitigation lifestyle coaching
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, non-drug way to help shift workers stay alert and recover faster.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Coaching requires time and effort, and benefits may be modest.
