Johrei Therapy and CBT-I in Facilitating Sleep in ICU Survivors

Comparative-effectiveness of Johrei Therapy and CBT-I in Facilitating Sleep in ICU Survivors

Objectively measures periods of quiescence that could be inferred to be sleep.

Used to record bedtimes, wake times, and naps and will then be reconciled with actigraphy downloads.

Measure of Alertness at different times during the day.

Measures response to stressful life experiences.

Measures circulating levels of cytokines and neurotransmitters through blood and urine collection.

There is no plan to share IPD information.

The Effect of BioSteel Sports Drink Supplementation on Muscular Fatigue, Cognitive Function, and Recovery Following Sprint Interval Exercise

Wingate test: Will be conducted using a cycle ergometer which electronically measures power (average, peak and decline). Resistance will be equal to 10% of subject body mass in kg.

Modified Stroop test- a measurement of attentional fatigue and executive function, will be scored based on error rate and mean response time (Kane & Kay, 1992).

Sitting medicine ball toss using a standard 4kg medicine ball. Where the ball first lands will be measured as the total distance (recorded in cm.)

Standing long jump will be conducted from a standing start with feet together. The distance from the jumping line to the individuals heels will recorded as the total distance (recorded in cm.)

Vertical jump will be conducted from a standing start. Without a pre-step individual will jump as a high as possible. Measurement is to the nearest cm.

Bench press repetitions of 150 lbs (including the barbell) will be performed at a rate of 25 repetitions per minute.

Trail Making Test Part B- a measurement of visual attention and speed of processing, will be scored on total time to completion (Sanchez-Cubillo et al., 2009).

Ratings of perceived exertion: Will be assessed after each sprint interval trial and at the conclusion of muscular endurance and power testing via a Borg Scale (Noble et al., 1983).
