A novel sleep aid device to reduce sleep latency using air-CO2 mixed gas - PubMed
The results of this study suggest a new method that can be used to treat sleep disorders including insomnia.
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Results: When the developed device was put to use in reality, sleep latency was decreased by 29.01%, on average, for those with a sleep latency of 5 min or more, compared to when the device was not in use. Moreover, the total sleep time was increased by 29.19 min, WASO was decreased by 13.17%, and sleep efficiency was increased by 5.48%. We also affirmed that the ODI and 90% ODI did not decrease when the device was used. Although different questions may be raised about the safety of using a gas such as carbon dioxide (CO2), the result that tODI was not reduced shows that sleep aids using CO2 mixtures do not adversely affect human health.
