The Effect of Various Types of Weighted Blankets on Sleep Quality and Quantity: A Randomized Cross-Over Controlled Study
Weighted blankets have been used to improve sleep quality in children with neurodevelopmental disorders. It is not known, however, whether weighted blankets can improve overnight sleep in healthy adults and those with poor sleep quality and what is the optimal weight of those blankets for achieving the best results.
AIMS: The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of 4 different weights of weighted blankets on sleep in participants with low sleep quality.
Inclusion: Healthy individual.
Exclusion: history of mental illness; history of epilepsy; any acute or chronic condition that would limit the ability of the patient to participate in the study.
