Brief Summary

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) go through two phases: flare and remission. Prediction of flares and identification of patients in remission but at high risk of flare are a major issue when taking care of IBD patients. Considering close interactions between sleep, immunity and intestinal inflammation, sleep disorders could be a predictor of flares. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that sleep efficacy decreases before IBD flare. Patients in remission will be assessed for IBD symptoms (activity scores, biological factors) and sleep disorders (actigraphy, DREEM®, questionnaires) during one year.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • rate of relapse

    For Crohn's disease: Harvey Bradshaw Index ≥ 5 AND a CRP \> 5 mg/L and/or calprotectin \> 250 µg/g For ulcerative colitis: Mayo ≥ 3 AND a CRP \> 5 mg/L and/or calprotectin \> 250 µg/g Sleep efficiency will be measured by actimetry and expressed as a percentage. Sleep efficiency is defined as the ratio of total time spent asleep compared to total time spent in bed. An actinometer will collect one efficiency measurement per night; an average per week will then be calculated from the daily measurements.

    12 months after baseline

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Sleep efficiency calculated by actimetry and expressed in percentage.

    12 months after baseline

  • Intra-sleep wakefulness duration (min), sleep latency (min) and sleep duration (min)

    12 months after baseline

  • total sleep time

    12 months after baseline

  • sleep onset latency

    12 months after baseline

  • intra-sleep wake duration

    12 months after baseline

Study Arms (1)

Sleep activity

EXPERIMENTAL

Actigraphy : Patient will wear actinometers on the wrist for 1 year continuously. In the study, MotionWatch 8 actimeters will be used, a class 1 medical device with CE mark (EN ISO 13485:2016 standard). They will be provided by the company camntech. Ancillary Study: DREEM 3 headband : a subgroup of patients will wear the headband during 2 nights every 3 months.

Other: Sleep activityOther: Questionnaires

Interventions

Actinography : Patient will wear actinometers on the wrist for 1 year continuously. In the study, MotionWatch 8 actimeters will be used, a class 1 medical device with CE mark (EN ISO 13485:2016 standard). Ancillary study : DREEM 3 headband : a subgroup of patients will wear the headband during 2 nights every 3 months.

Sleep activity

The PSQI, EPWORTH, FACIT-F, ISI, and ICSD-3 questionnaires will be completed by patients every 3 months during their follow-up consultation according to the usual management. The questionnaire by Horne and Ostberg will be completed by the patients only during the inclusion visit.
