NCT02292134

Brief Summary

Sleep architecture is deeply altered in intensive care unit (ICU patients). Among factors involved in poor sleep quality are environmental factors, such as light and noise, which are an unavoidable consequence of cares. The aim of the study is to evaluate the benefit of earplug and sleep mask on sleep architecture and quality in ICU patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Duration of sleep stage 3 and 4 (polysomnography)

    Significant change of the duration of sleep stage 3 and 4 (polysomnography) in the "protective strategy group" (earplug and sleep mask) as compared to the control group (conventional strategy).

    day 2

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Nocturnal awakenings (polysomnography)

    Day 2

  • Proportion of REM sleep (polysomnography)

    Day 2

  • Total sleep time (polysomnography)

    Day 2

  • Sleep time efficiency (polysomnography)
