Sleep monitoring in the ICU could cut breathing tube use by half
NCT ID NCT07606495
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 21, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether improving sleep in intensive care unit (ICU) patients can help them recover better. Researchers will use a sleep monitor to guide nurses in postponing non-urgent care when patients are asleep. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the need for breathing machines or death within 7 days. About 460 conscious ICU patients will take part.
