Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Sleep Study
Sponsor: University of Pennsylvania
Summary
This observational study will examine the relationship between aircraft noise exposure in the bedroom and objectively assessed sleep disturbance. Surveys will be mailed to randomly selected households around selected airports to recruit individuals for a 5 night in-home sleep study. Eligible survey respondents interested in participating in the sleep study will record nighttime indoor sounds using a portable audio recorder and wear a small device that collects heart rate and movement data for 5 consecutive nights. They will also complete brief morning questionnaires about their previous night's sleep and their sleep quality and a participant characteristics questionnaire. Collected data will be used to create an exposure-response model between aircraft noise exposure and sleep disturbance.
