Trial Details
Researchers think mobile wellness apps can improve poor sleep in people diagnosed with blood cancer.
Before starting the study, you'll:
- Provide 1 blood sample at a local lab
- Have a 30 minute virtual visit with a research assistant
- Get a sleep device in the mail that tracks your nightly sleep
- Complete a baseline survey online of your sleep health
You'll wear the sleep device on your index finger each night and complete an online sleep diary each morning for 1 week.
Then, you'll do the following over 2 months:
- Wear the sleep device nightly
- Complete an online sleep diary each morning
- Engage with assigned wellness app each day for at least 10 minutes
- Complete an online survey at the end of each week
- Provide 1 blood sample at a local lab
Finally, after 3 months have passed without monitoring your sleep, you'll have 1 week of wearing the sleep device and completing online surveys, and providing the last blood sample.
Everyone will be compensated monetarily for their participation in the study.
