Sleep fragmentation, sleep deprivation, or both.
I applaud the efforts of Schwartz and Moxley to explore ways to achieve greater understanding of the role of arousals in producing daytime impairment.1 This area of research has great clinical relevance, but has been largely neglected in recent years. Schwartz and Moxley distinguish short arousals (3-15 secs) from long arousals (15-60 secs) and wake events (>60 secs). They found that long arous...
متن کاملMonitoring respiration during sleep.
The sleep-related breathing disorders have been categorized in various ways. The most basic schema divides them into obstructive or central apneic events. An American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) Task Force Report published in 1999 defined four separate syndromes associated with abnormal respiratory events during sleep among adults, namely, obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS),...
متن کاملRespiration during sleep in kyphoscoliosis.
Eleven subjects with non-paralytic and 10 with paralytic kyphoscoliosis and nine normal control subjects were studied during sleep. The Cobb angle of those with kyphoscoliosis varied from 60 degrees to 140 degrees (median 100 degrees) and the vital capacity varied from 17% to 56% (median 28%) of the value predicted on the basis of span. Recordings made during sleep included expired carbon dioxi...
متن کاملCPAP, weight loss, or both for obstructive sleep apnea.
BACKGROUND Obesity and obstructive sleep apnea tend to coexist and are associated with inflammation, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and high blood pressure, but their causal relation to these abnormalities is unclear. METHODS We randomly assigned 181 patients with obesity, moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea, and serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) greater than 1.0 mg per liter...
متن کاملSleep or physical activity?
I would ideally love to maintain a consistent exercise routine. However, there are stretches of time during which I get very little sleep, due either to a hectic schedule or a lot of stress. During these times (sometimes one or two weeks), I find it almost impossible to go work out. I'm simply too fatigued (I don't drink caffeine because it disrupts my sleep ? even one cup in the morning!). The...
