PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Scale: Over the past 7 days: My sleep was restless
The PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Scale is a validated and widely used assessment tool developed as part of the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) initiative. It is designed to measure the severity of sleep disturbances and disruptions experienced by individuals. This scale includes a range of questions that assess the frequency and impact of various sleep-related issues, such as difficulty falling asleep, nighttime awakenings, and restless sleep. Healthcare professionals and researchers rely on this scale to better understand and quantify sleep problems in patients, enabling them to tailor interventions and treatment strategies to address sleep-related concerns effectively.

A Note from the Protocol Team
Advanced Author
Why I Created This Challenge: For years, the health community has been fascinated by the potential of greens powder to enhance sleep quality. Medical studies suggest that these powders, rich in nutrients, can aid sleep by balancing hormones and reducing inflammation. Conversely, social media is rife with testimonials about miraculous sleep improvements after starting a greens powder regimen. However, these claims lack scientific backing. This discrepancy made me realize the necessity of a comprehensive study into the effects of greens powder on sleep quality, using the PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Scale and Oura Sleep measures. My Objective For You: The purpose of this study is to investigate if daily consumption of a specific greens powder, in conjunction with a few dietary and behavioral adjustments, can improve your sleep quality. The goal is to provide you with solid, evidence-based strategies to enhance sleep, thereby improving your overall well-being. Aims & Objectives: This study aims to assess the impact of daily use of a specific greens powder on sleep quality. The secondary objective is to evaluate the effects of dietary and behavioral changes in conjunction with the greens powder intake. Significance & Impact: The findings from this study could potentially change the way we approach sleep hygiene. If successful, the protocol could provide a natural, accessible solution to sleep disturbances, a common issue in today's fast-paced world. However, it is important to remember that individual responses may vary, and it is not a guaranteed solution for everyone. Regardless, the study will shed light on a widely debated topic, providing a scientific perspective on sleep improvement strategies.
