Study Summary

This trial will test whether the SIESTA-Rehab intervention leads to better sleep and improved recovery for stroke patients during acute rehabilitation.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who've had a stroke and are admitted to the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab. They must be able to consent, follow study procedures, and have medical clearance. It's not for those with serious heart conditions, neurological diseases like MS or Alzheimer's, pregnant/nursing women, people with skin allergies/open wounds, or users of certain cardiac devices.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The SIESTA program aims to improve sleep during acute stroke rehabilitation by educating nurses on minimizing disruptions and using a protocol called ApneaLink to screen and treat sleep-disordered breathing if it occurs.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on education and screening protocols rather than medications or invasive treatments, side effects may be minimal but could include discomfort from wearing the ApneaLink device for sleep monitoring.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: SIESTA RehabExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Stroke floor on which nurses will be receiving training (SIESTA Rehab Education) on how to minimize nighttime disruptions and batching overnight tasks to preserve sleep for patients hospitalized on that floor. Stroke patients admitted to the SIESTA Rehab Unit will be screening for sleep disordered breathing using ApneaLink. Patients hospitalized on this unit will be approached for consent to wear sensors and actigraphy watches during the hospital stay and after discharge.
Group II: Control UnitActive Control1 Intervention
Patients on this unit will receive usual care for stroke patients as outlined by SRALab. including routine nursing care without any intervention to promote sleep like SIESTA and routing sleep disorders screenings based on clinician judgement. Patients hospitalized on this unit will also be approached for consent to wear sensors and actigraphy watches during the hospital stay and after discharge.
