Measure
CES Active
Active cranial electrical stimulation device CES: Patients will receive cranial electrical stimulation once a day for 20 minutes over 7 days. They will be allowed to increase the stimulation level on Day 2. A wrist worn actigraph will record sleep. Patients may elect to receive standard of care sleep medication if not satisfied with sleep.
CES Sham
Inactive device identical to the active device. CES: Patient will receive sham electrical stimulation once a day for 20 minutes over 7 days.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 7- 24 hour periods

Population: Data has not been analyzed. Small numbers of subjects due to termination of study. There were also technical problems with measurement of primary and secondary outcomes leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data. Due to lack of resources.
