Aging, Hypnotics, Sleep Inertia and the Risk of Falling
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating zolpidem for Aging and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 24 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this project is to examine the impact of sleeping pills and waking up in the middle of the night on walking balance and cognitive function, to identify risk factors for falls in older adults. A significant percentage of falls, approximately 33 to 52 percent, occur during the nighttime and morning hours when people are normally sleeping; therefore, it is possible that sleep and sleeping medication related impairments in balance may contribute to this risk.
