WHAT EFFECTS DO NARCOTICS HAVE ON SLEEP STAGING?
|
DECREASED REM
SLIIGHT INCREASED IN STAGE I |
|
|
BIPOLAR EEG CHANNELS ARE TYPICALLY EMPLOYED IN ELAVATING PATIENTS WHOSE HISTORY SUGGESTS...
|
BEHAVIORAL PARASOMNIAS
THE DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF PARASOMNIAS INCLUDE RULLING OUT NOCTURNAL SEIXRES VIE THE INCLUSION OF BIPOLAR EEG CHANNELS. |
|
|
CHARACTERISTICS OF NOCTURNAL SEIZURES
|
CHARACTERIZED BY SPIKE AND WAVE ACTIVITY. SPIKES ARE VERY FAST. TYPICALLY SPIKE AND A SHARP WAVE FOLLOWED BY A SLOW WAVE.
|
|
|
ZEITGEBERS
|
"TIME GIVER"
GERMAN REFERING TO NATURALLY OCCURING CLUES THAT TELL PATIENTS WHAT TIME IT IS. EX. SUNRISE |
|
|
THE GROWTH HORMONE RELEASED DURING DELTA SLEEP
|
SOMATOTROPIN
STIMULATES GROWTH AND CELL REPRODUCTION DOES NOT OCCUR IN INFANTS YOUNGER THAT 3 MONTHS. |
|
|
THETA HYPERSYNCHRONY
|
SIMILAR FREQUENCY OF REGULAR RHYTHM BUT, THE VOLTAGE IS MUCH HIGHER IN AMPLITUDE.
FREQUENTLY SEEN IN CHILDREN AND YOUNGER ADULTS. |
|
|
A MEDICATION THAT MAY CAUSE NIGHTMARES?
|
ANTIHYPERTENSIVE BETA BLOCKERS
|
|
|
EPILEPTIFORM
|
HAVING THE FORM OR APPEARANCE OF EPILEPSY
|
|
|
SWEATING IS ABSENT IN WHICH SLEEP STAGE?
|
REM
OCCURS 2-3 MINUTES PRIOR TO REM SLEEP PERIOD. |
|
|
WHICH EKG WAVEFORM REPRESENTS VENTRICULAR DEPOLARIZATION?
|
THE QRS COMPLEX OCCURS WHEN THE VENTRICLES CONTRACT.
|
|
|
TREATMENT FOR CENTRAL SLEEP APNEA
|
NONINVASIVE VENTILATION WITH CPAP OR BiPAP IN A TIMED MODE WHICH ALLOWS FOR INTERMITTENT CYCLING OF BILEVEL PAP PRESSURE WITHOUT TRIGGERING OF THE SYSTEM BY PT. THE SUDDEN CHANGE IN PRESSURE OFTEN TRIGGERS AN INSPIRATION BY THE PT THEREFORE INTERUPTING THE APNIC EPISODE. ALSO THOUGHT THAT THE EFFECT OF POSITIVE PRESSURE ON THE LUNGS CHANGES THE VENTILATION PERFUSION RELATIONSHIP OF THE LUNGS CAUSING SLIGHT INCREASE IN ARTERIAL PaCo2 STIMULATIONG VENTILATION.
|
|
|
A DISADVANTAGE TO PIEZO-ELECTRIC EFFORT BANDS IS?
|
THE TENDENCY TO CHANGE POLARITY/PHASE AFTER LARGE MOVEMENTS. PIEZO BANDS SOMETIMES FALSELY INDICATE PARADOXICAL EFFORT.
|
|
|
WHICH FREQUENCY FILTER SETTING IS MOST APPROPRIATE FOR AND EOG CHANNEL?
|
0.3Hz-35Hz
|
|

|
BY AN APPORVED INCINERATOR
|
|
|
MIXED APNEA
|
A PERIOD OF NO EFFORT FOLLOWED BY A RESUMPTION OF EFFORT, WITH NO AIRFLOW THROUGHOUT.
|
|
