Trial Outcomes & Findings for Ramelteon for Insomnia Comorbid With Asthma (NCT NCT00869167)

NCT ID: NCT00869167

Last Updated: 2013-05-01

Results Overview

The change in ISI and PSQI from baseline to end of study will be compared between the two groups. PSQI has a score range of 0-21, with lower the number being less sleep disturbances ISI has a score range of 0-28, with lower score meaning less insomnia symptoms

DSST tests the number of correct digit-symbol pairs that an individual can identify within an allotted period (60-90 sec). It test memory and concentration, among other parameters. DSST score can range from 0-125, with 125 being the most number correct during the allotted time period.
