OPTIMISE (hOme-based sleeP moniTor In Movement dISordErs)

Summary

Cervical dystonia and levodopa-induced dyskinesia (or LID) in Parkinson’s disease are two common movement. Our understanding of these conditions is still limited which led to very few treatment options for its motor symptoms. However, the non-motor symptoms are also common in dystonia and LID. One of these non-motor symptoms is the poor sleep quality. Dr. Davide Martino at the University of Calgary is leading a research study to gain a better understanding of the brain activity during the sleep (better known as the sleep architecture) and the quality of sleep in the people diagnosed with dystonia and LID. This study aims to gain a better understanding of this non-motor aspect of dystonia and LID.
This is an observational study. Complete participation in the study comprises a single visit followed by 7 nights of recording of your sleep at your home. The study duration depends on your schedule and availability.
As part of this study, we will ask you to undergo one clinical assessment involving physical examination and questionnaires about your mood, anxiety, and sleep quality.
