Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
BASELINE Participants will wear actigraphy bracelets to define their sleep pattern for 2 weeks, Then they will spent a normal night at home before coming to the performance center in the afternoon (13h to18h). There they will respond to questions about stress and sleep, will be equipped with smart shirts (HEXOSKIN) to measure their level of stress during the performance, and then undertake a crisis simulation. Afterwards they pass some standardized cognitive tests.
TRAINING The whole year group of residents will be trained to understand sleep management and learn power napping. After the workshop they will individually be trained during 2 weeks including some follow up calls.
INTERVENTION The participants carry again actigraphy bracelets. Then they work a night shift in their service where they usually sleep less than four hours. The morning after the shift participants are free to spend how the like while sleep is being controlled with actigraphy bracelets. In the afternoon (13 to 18h) they return for the second time to the performance center. They are randomly assigned to a napping or non napping group and equipped with ambulatory ECG (Hexoskin) as well es ambulatory EEG (Somfit). After the intervention period (nap or leisure time) they proceed with the same performance measures as at baseline including a simulation crisis and computerized cognitive tests.
