Trial summary

Sleep deprivation has been found to impact exercise performance. The effects of both partial (several hours) and full (24+ hours) sleep deprivation on exercise performance has shown effects on rating of perceived exertion, rate of oxygen consumption, respiratory exchange ratio, and heart rate.

About this study

Official title: The Effects of Partial Sleep Restriction on Physiological and Perceptual Responses During Submaximal and Maximal Exercise in Trained Runners

Sleep deprivation has been found to impact exercise performance. The effects of both partial (several hours) and full (24+ hours) sleep deprivation on exercise performance has shown effects on rating of perceived exertion, rate of oxygen consumption, respiratory exchange ratio, and heart rate. A common practice with athletes is to perform regular physiological testing (submaximal and maximal) in order to assess their fitness and to determine training intensities. However, the effects of sleep deprivation on those same physiological test results has not been investigated Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of partial sleep deprivation on physiological test results.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Oxygen uptake

    Change from baseline in oxygen uptake measured breath-by-breath using an online gas analyzer during submaximal and maximal incremental exercise

    Measured: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days

  2. Respiratory exchange ratio

    Change from baseline in respiratory exchange ratio measured breath-by-breath using an online gas analyzer during submaximal and maximal incremental exercise

    Measured: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days

  3. Breathing frequency

    Change from baseline in breathing frequency measured breath-by-breath using an online gas analyzer during submaximal and maximal incremental exercise

    Measured: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days

  4. Minute ventilation

    Change from baseline in minute ventilation measured breath-by-breath using an online gas analyzer during submaximal and maximal incremental exercise

    Measured: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days

  5. Blood lactate concentration

    Change from baseline in blood lactate concentration measured using capillary puncture during submaximal and maximal incremental exercise

    Measured: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days

  6. Rating of perceived exertion

    Change from baseline in ratings of perceived exertion measured using a 15-point (6-20) scale during submaximal and maximal incremental exercise

    Measured: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days

  7. Heart rate

    Change from baseline in heart rate measured using a heart rate monitor during submaximal and maximal incremental exercise

    Measured: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sleep deprivation in people with Sleep Deprivation, run by St Mary's University College.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Oxygen uptake (time frame: From baseline to completion, up to 31 days). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Apr 2022.
