Study Summary

This trial is testing how well different types of commercial devices improve sleep quality, stress recovery, and performance.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women aged 18-50 who are interested in how certain devices might improve their sleep and well-being. It's not suitable for those with abnormal sleep schedules, significant upcoming medical changes, or specific health conditions like cardiovascular diseases or diagnosed sleep disorders.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of two devices, OOLER and EmbrWave, on participants' sleep quality and overall wellness. The goal is to see if these technologies can enhance recovery from stress and improve performance by affecting nocturnal physiology.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves commercially available technology designed to augment sleep quality rather than medication, typical drug side effects are not expected. However, discomfort or skin irritation could occur due to device use.
