Examination of Sleep and Family Functioning in Pediatric Craniopharyngioma Patients
NCT03330080 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Pediatric craniopharyngioma patients experience significant endocrine and sleep dysregulation difficulties. Sleep is a crucial part of children's healthy development, and sleep difficulties are associated with severe functional morbidity. Insufficient sleep, excessive daytime sleepiness, and poor sleep quality have all been significantly related to academic, behavioral, and emotional functioning in children and adolescents. Ecological momentary assessments (EMA) will be used to collect observational data. EMA data will be collected twice daily for one week. For the morning EMA administration, participants will be asked about their sleep. During the evening administration, participants will be asked about their daytime sleepiness, overall well-being, and family functioning. Covariates also administered during the evening administration include medication administration (Y/N) and total screen time. At the end of the EMA data collection period (on day 7 OR 8), participants will be sent a survey asking them to report - anonymously - their overall experience and satisfaction with the EMA data collection method.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT03330080
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT03330080 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 41 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which has 441 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Craniopharyngioma appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 0 interventions. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT03330080 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Tennessee. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
