The Impact of Music Intervention on Sleep (NCT06088810)
The Impact of Music Intervention on Sleep: CoMPoSER Trial
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The primary purpose of this Stage 1b NIH-funded clinical trial (K23AG073618, PI Petrovsky) is to determine the efficacy of a 1-month music intervention (Calming Music Personalized for Sleep Enhancement in PeRsons living with Dementia, CoMPoSER) on health outcomes in 72 dyads (144 participants) of persons living with dementia (PLWD) and their caregivers (Stage 1b). The secondary purpose of this research project is to examine the mechanism of stress reduction and sustained effects of the music intervention on PLWD and caregiver well-being. We will evaluate the acceptability of the mobile application CoMPoSER in a pilot RCT and determine the impact of the mobile application CoMPoSER on PLWD (sleep latency, sleep efficiency, wake after sleep onset, total sleep time, sleep quality) and caregiver (perceived stress and well-being) outcomes.
