Comparison of Two Temperatures to Treat Insomnia
- Conditions
- Primary Insomnia
- Interventions
- Device: Cereve Sleep System at 14-16 degrees CDevice: Cereve Sleep System at 30 degrees C
- Registration Number
- NCT01790256
- Lead Sponsor
- Cereve, Inc.
- Brief Summary
Insomnia patients demonstrate subjective and physiological hyperarousal. The Cereve Sleep System has been proposed as a clinical treatment to reverse this hyperarousal in insomnia patients. The current study is a two dose study to determine the optimal temperature for the Cereve Sleep System. Primary outcome measures include EEG sleep measured sleep latency and sleep efficiency.
