PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy™ for Chronic Insomnia and Sleep Deprivation
This study is testing a new treatment called PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy™ (PSTx) for people with chronic insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep), sleep deprivation, and REM sleep disorders. PSTx uses Diprivan/Propofol, an FDA-approved anesthetic, to quickly induce REM sleep. The goal is to clear a chemical called adenosine from the brain, which builds up when you're awake and makes you feel sleepy. Researchers hope this will improve your sleep and overall well-being. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 65 years old. The study aims to see if PSTx can reduce sleep pressure and improve how long and well you experience REM sleep. The current status of the study is unclear.
- Study design
- This is a single-arm study, meaning all 100 participants will receive the PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy™ treatment. It is an interventional study, but the phase is not specified.
- What's involved
- You will receive PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy™ which involves the administration of Diprivan/Propofol and continuous EEG monitoring. The study measures changes over 30 days.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Your sleep onset latency and REM sleep duration will be measured 30 days after the treatment.

What this trial measures
- Reduction in Homeostatic Sleep Pressure60-120 minutes
Evaluate the effectiveness of PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy in reducing homeostatic sleep pressure, as measured by EEG recordings, blood serum uric acid levels and subjective self-reports.
- Change in Sleep Onset Latency30 days
Measure the time it takes for patients to fall asleep (sleep onset latency) following PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy, using polysomnography (PSG).
- Change in REM Sleep Duration30 days
Measure the improvement in the duration of REM sleep using EEG and polysomnography (PSG) before, during and after PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy.
- Change in Overall Sleep Health30 days
The PROSOMNIA Sleep Quiz (PSQ) is a comprehensive tool used to assess sleep health, specifically for identifying chronic insomnia, REM sleep deprivation, or both. The scale measures sleep quality, quantity, and overall health factors contributing to sleep disorders. The PSQ consists of 18 questions, each scoring various sleep and health-related conditions. Quiz Scoring System: Minimum Score: 0 points Maximum Score: 55 points Higher Scores Indicate: Poorer sleep health and worse outcomes.
