Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This monocentric, cross-over, randomised, double blind and placebo-controlled study evaluates the effects of auditory stimulations of the sleep slow oscillation on deep sleep quality.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Sleep quality impairment has long been identified as a risk factor to develop cardio-vascular, metabolic and more recently neurodegenerative diseases. The slow wave sleep, characterized by slow oscillations, has a major role on memory and hormones releasing. Here, we aim to assess a miniaturized sleep device that would automatically detect and stimulate sleep slow oscillations with sounds to enhance deep sleep quality.

The subjects realize 3 conditions :

* Up condition : Auditory stimulations are delivered in synchrony with the up phase of slow oscillations during N3 sleep stage.
* Random condition : Auditory stimulations are randomly delivered during N3 sleep stage.
* Placebo condition: The device is worn without any auditory stimulations delivered.

The subjects are equipped with a reference polysomnography and the auditory stimulation device during 3 nights and one habituation night prior to them. A wash out period of 6 days between each night will be respected.
