A Summary Look at CES Sleep Studies Ray B. Smith, PhD.
Executive Summary
The results indicate that a wide range of sleep disorders can be expected to respond to CES treatment.
Eighteen studies, in which a total of 648 patients with various types of sleep disorders were treated with cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES), were combined statistically in order to get a more confident look at the effectiveness of CES for treating this condition. While most of the studies were of the classic double blind protocol, others used either the single blind, the cross over design or were open clinical trials. The result of the analysis showed that the overall effectiveness of CES was an impressive 62% improvement, and when the studies were weighted in terms of the rigorousness of the study design employed, the improvement was found to be an even stronger 67%.
Introduction
Meta-analysis is a way of combining the results of many separate
studies to see the effectiveness of a treatment when different types
of patients are studied, under different study conditions, with
different study protocols, and who came to the various studies with
differing symptoms accompanying their sleep problem.
The goal of clinical studies is always to first test the
effectiveness of a potential treatment and secondly to discover
which patients the treatment may be most effective in treating.
Meta-analysis has the effect of allowing us to essentially study a
larger number of patients than can usually be assembled for a single
study, and the larger the combined study sample, the greater is the
confidence that can be placed in the study outcome: that the study
findings are true and accurate. Also, the more diverse the study
group is in the combined sample, the more confident can we be in
generalizing the study outcome to larger groups of people outside
the study. That is, it increases the range of potential types of
insomnia patients that we can predict will be effectively treated
with CES.
