Awake & Move. Role of Nocturnal Sleep and Rapid Eye Movement Sleep at Morning Awakening on Sleep Benefit in Parkinson's Disease. An Interventional Cross-over Study.
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating REMSA and NREMSA for Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease. Completed, enrolled 24 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Sleep benefit (SB) is a prominent spontaneous, apparently unpredictable, transitory improvement in motor function reported by around 50% of patients affected by Parkinson's Disease (PD) after sleep and before taking their first dose of dopaminergic medications. The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that objective and/or subjective improvement of motor function might be due to a carry-over effect of Rapid Eye Movements (REM) sleep at awakening from this sleep phase.
