I am not sure where the idea of asking banks of questions came from. I was just interested in what forum members and maybe eloquent people like...
I don't remember exactly what he said. However, the implication was that whatever methods are normally used to assess psychiatric problems showed...
That sounds right. Just knowing that people have tried a plan before and found it helpful, and that a simple sensible study has confirmed that...
I am going to try pottering off to bed, with the window slightly ajar. I have an unreasonable belief that this will get me a good nights sleep. On...
Indeed. Yes, that is the question. My guess is that you start with things already advised or popular with patients. You cannot test too many...
I understand that sentiment. But, in a rather different context, my wife when she was ill wanted to be left alone. If she had been, she would have...
Yes, I see no prospect of any of this affecting the current guideline decisions. It is for the future. In part it is something I might want to...
The trouble is that I am pretty sure that there isn't any evidence. And I am wary of clinical consensus documents. That term implies that in the...
The comments on Amazon are not very encouraging. It sounds as if the author knows all the answers - for some reason that is not clear.
I would guess at comparing plans in place over a period of say six months. It is not that anyone has to follow the sleep routine, if it is...
That makes sense to a degree. But without controlled studies how do the staff know what is the appropriate way to deal with any particular set of...
Thanks, I edited to indicate I realised you were making a lateral point.
Yes but that is not an issue of planning support. It is a political issue relating to the PIP system. I am not asking for suggestions for advice...
It may well be, but that doesn't matter. We still want to ask the question as to whether advice on trying to standardise sleep is helpful, harmful...
But this is all theory based stuff. I am just interested in finding evidence that practical eadvice actually helps. That should be theory neutral....
I was not intending to get involved with drugs, which would require controlled trials of their own. And, hang on, I am not asking people to give...
So at present one of the few things in the advice in the guidelines is sleep regulation. If that is no use we need to establish that. How do we...
This might be true but it needs testing before any advice is given. Help with cooking is pretty much bound to be helpful at the time but the...
Yes, we have already thought about long term actometry and I am all for it. But it will not provide any information about what advice to give. I...
I am not looking for behaviour modification. I am looking for evidence for one or other sort of advice being sound. Why would you be uneasy with...
