Groups2
Group 2 names the comparator: control.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Eye Mask and Ear Plugs | General management will be as for the control group. In addition, patients in this group will be given ear plugs and eye shades (masks) to use when trying to sleep. The patient will generally be responsible for using or not using the equipment, though ward nurses may remind patients if they notice that the patient has the equipment.~Ear plugs: The patient will be given a plastic wallet containing an eye mask and ear plugs, to be used when trying to sleep.~Eye Mask: The patient will be given a plastic wallet containing an eye mask and ear plugs, to be used when trying to sleep.~Zopiclone: This night sedation will be given to any patient requesting it, in either group | 0 | 109 | EG001 |
| Group 2 | Control | Patients in this arm will continue current standard management for sleep, which is largely reactive; if a patient requests night sedation or complains that they cannot sleep and that they want help, then zopiclone is prescribed, starting at 3.75 mg.~Zopiclone: This night sedation will be given to any patient requesting it, in either group | 0 | 97 | EG000 |
