Summary

This study tests a mobile app called RN-SLEEP that teaches night-shift nurses cognitive-behavioral strategies to improve sleep and reduce fatigue. 76 nurses will use either the RN-SLEEP app or a control app for several weeks. Researchers will measure sleep duration, quality, and other outcomes using activity monitors and surveys.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
RN-SLEEP mobile app (behavioral training program)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could give nurses a convenient, evidence-based tool to improve sleep and reduce fatigue, potentially lowering job-related injuries and errors.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (76 participants) testing a new app. Results may not apply to all nurses, and the app's long-term effectiveness is unknown.
