简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the treatment with BTL-699-2 device is able to improve sleep quality and reduce stress in adults above the age of 22 years. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does the treatment with BTL-699-2 device improve sleep quality? Does the treatment with BTL-699-2 device reduce stress?
Participants will be asked to:
- Undergo six treatments
- Complete the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index
- Complete the Perceived Stress Scale Questionnaire
- Complete the Sleep and Stress Assessment Questionnaire
- Complete the Therapy Comfort and Subject Satisfaction Questionnaire
详细描述
The study uses a multi-center, sham-controlled, single-blinded, interventional study design. The subjects will be enrolled and assigned to two experimental study arms - Group A and Group B in the ratio 3:1. Group A will receive active treatment and Group B, which received sham treatment, will serve as a control. All enrolled participants will receive six treatment visits, 3-7 days apart.
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Perceived Stress Scale Questionnaire and Sleep and Stress Assessment Questionnaire will be administered to the subjects before the first treatment, after the last treatment, and at the two follow-up visits - 1 month and 3 months after the final session.
The Therapy Comfort Questionnaire will be administered after the last treatment, while the Subject Satisfaction will be given after the last treatment and at both follow-up visits.
The total expected duration of subject participation, from the baseline visit to study completion, is approximately five months.

结局指标
主要结局
Assessment of Sleep Quality Improvement
时间窗: 15 months
The change in the score obtained from the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index will be recorded. The questionnaire will be administered at the baseline visit, after the last treatment, at the 1-month and 3-month follow-up visits. It is a 19-item questionnaire. These 19 questions are grouped into 7 components, and each component is scored on a 0 - 3 scale. The minimum obtained score is 0 and the maximum is 21. Lower score indicates healthier sleep quality, therefore improvement is considered a decrease in the obtained score.
