简要总结

This is a double-blind, parallel design study in elderly primary insomnia patients and demographically matched controls. The objectives if this study are primarily: 1. To determine if functional deficits in simulated driving performance can be demonstrated in primary insomnia patients, and detected in healthy volunteers, impaired by alcohol; and secondarily: 2. To compare simulated driving performance deficits in elderly primary insomnia patients to those in healthy elderly volunteers impaired by alcohol, for at least one of the following driving endpoints: standard deviation of lane position (SDLP), standard deviation of speed (speed deviation), lane excursions, and a driving composite score.

  • •The participant:
  • •Has visual or auditory impairment;
  • •Has a history of clinically significant endocrine (including diabetes), gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hematological, hepatic, immunological, renal, respiratory, or genitourinary abnormalities or diseases;
  • •Has a history of neoplastic disease ;

  • •Has a history of allergy, exceptional sensitivity, or adverse reaction to alcohol;
  • •Has a significant history of motion sickness or demonstrates significant simulator sickness during practice drives at screening;
  • •Consumes excessive amounts of alcohol or subject or patient consumes alcohol to promote sleep (i.e., within 3 hours before going to bed);
