Effect of Night Float Call on Sleep and Activity Patterns Among Anesthesia Residents

NCT05043038 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 55

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

With increasing awareness about physician fatigue and its effect on patient safety, residency programs are increasingly transitioning to a night float call system. In other industries, multiple night shifts in a row can cause a disruption in the circadian rhythm, sleep debt, shift work disorder, that is related to chronic medical conditions such as obesity and cardiovascular disease. We will evaluate the effect of different call structures on resident activity, sleep and self reported measures of wellness using a commercially available Fitbit device.
