DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Brian K. Gehlbach, MD, Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Section of Pulmonary and Critical Care at the University of Chicago, seeks support for research career development to establish a career as a clinical investigator with a focus on disturbances of sleep and circadian rhythmicity in critically ill patients. Dr. Gehlbach will develop his research skills under the mentorship of Dr. Eve Van Cauter, a well-known authority on sleep and circadian rhythms in normal and pathologic states. He will be co-mentored by Dr. Jesse Hall, an accomplished investigator in the critically ill and an authority on the sedation of mechanically ventilated patients. Dr. Jean-Paul Spire, an expert neurophysiologist and Director of the Sleep Fellowship Program, will provide additional mentoring where interpretation of the polysomnograms is concerned. In addition, Dr. Gehlbach will enroll in the certificate program sponsored by the university's NIH-funded Clinical Research Training Program. The proposed research project is designed to characterize sleep and circadian rhythmicity in critically patients and to explore the efficacy of a non-pharmacological intervention. The specific aims of the proposal are to characterize the quantity and quality of sleep in critically ill patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, to examine the effect of a protocol employing noise reduction and enforcement of a robust light-dark cycle on sleep quality and circadian rhythmicity, and to examine the relationship between sleep disruption and loss of circadian rhythmicity and the development of delirium. Sleep will be analyzed through the use of continuous polysomnography and circadian rhythmicity will be characterized through the measurement of core body temperature and urinary hormonal levels at frequent intervals. Over 1 million patients develop respiratory failure annually in the United States; yet, the sleep of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation has received little attention. The goal of this project is to improve the sleep and circadian rhythms of critically ill patients through practical strategies that can be employed at the bedside. Increased attention to sleep quality may improve clinical outcomes by reducing the development of delirium and helping patients recover from respiratory failure. (End of Abstract)

描述（由申请人提供）：Brian K. Gehlbach 医学博士，芝加哥大学肺科和重症监护科医学助理教授，寻求研究职业发展支持，以建立临床研究人员的职业生涯，重点关注危重病人的睡眠和昼夜节律紊乱。 Gehlbach 博士将在 Eve Van Cauter 博士的指导下发展他的研究技能，Eve Van Cauter 博士是正常和病理状态下睡眠和昼夜节律方面的知名权威。他将得到杰西·霍尔博士的共同指导，杰西·霍尔博士是一位在危重疾病领域颇有成就的研究者，也是机械通气患者镇静领域的权威。 Jean-Paul Spire 博士是一位神经生理学家专家兼睡眠奖学金计划主任，他将在多导睡眠图的解释方面提供额外的指导。此外，Gehlbach 博士还将参加由该大学 NIH 资助的临床研究培训计划赞助的证书课程。拟议的研究项目旨在表征危重患者的睡眠和昼夜节律，并探索非药物干预的功效。该提案的具体目的是描述接受机械通气的危重患者的睡眠数量和质量，检查采用降噪和强制明暗循环的方案对睡眠质量和昼夜节律的影响，以及研究睡眠中断、昼夜节律丧失和谵妄发生之间的关系。将通过使用连续多导睡眠图分析睡眠，并通过频繁测量核心体温和尿激素水平来表征昼夜节律。在美国，每年有超过 100 万患者出现呼吸衰竭；然而，接受机械通气的患者的睡眠却很少受到关注。该项目的目标是通过可在床边采用的实用策略来改善危重患者的睡眠和昼夜节律。对睡眠质量的更多关注可以通过减少谵妄的发生并帮助患者从呼吸衰竭中恢复来改善临床结果。 （摘要完）
