#Sleep with light on effects trial#

This Cooperative Research and Development Agreement is put in to place to facilitate the development and implementation of clinical interventions that demonstrably improve human health is currently a complex, recursive, and inefficient process that leads to delays of years or decades before discoveries in biomedical research result in health benefits for patients and communities.

#Sleep with light on effects trial#

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is participating with Georgetown University (GU) as a subrecipient in response to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) (U54 Clinical Trial Optional) funding opportunity announcement. Other spaces in the trial included the nurse station, a common room called the family room located near the nurse station, and the ACC administrator’s private office. The trial installation took place in a double resident room and a single resident room, and the corridor that connects those (and other) rooms to the central nurse station. ACC staff also more » track behavioral and health measures of the residents some of those results are reported here, although PNNL staff were not directly involved in collecting or interpreting those data.

SMUD and ACC staff coordinated and completed the design and installation of the LED systems, while PNNL and SMUD staff evaluated the photometric performance of the systems. DOE tasked the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to conduct the investigation. Department of Energy (DOE) to document the performance of the LED lighting systems as part of a GATEWAY evaluation. The Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) coordinated the project and invited the U.S. This report summarizes the results from a trial installation of light-emitting diode (LED) lighting systems in several spaces within the ACC Care Center in Sacramento, CA.
