Study Background
Oregon Health & Science University is looking for individuals to participate in a clinical research study on adolescent bipolar disorder to better understand the relationship between sleep disturbance, cognition, and suicide risk in adolescents with bipolar disorder.
The study includes an initial phone screening and the participants that meet the eligibility criteria will be invited for an in-person screening interview. Once participants are enrolled in the study, they will develop a safety plan and will be provided with resources if they become suicidal at any point during the study. During the study daily sleep data will be gathered for one month using actigraphy. Participants will also complete a cognition task and answer questions about mood, sleep, and suicidal thought using an app on their mobile phone daily for one month. After completion, participants will complete follow-up visits in 3 and 6 months.
