28 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
stage of sleep characterized by:

alpha replaced by slower rhythms
slow horizontal eye movements begin
"startles" (bilateral symmetric muscle movements)
stage 1 sleep
stage of sleep characterized by:

EEG slowing to theta
bursts of "sleep spindles" - burst of faster high voltage waves
k-complexes (high amplitude negative deflection follwoed by a positve wave)
stage 2 sleep
stage of sleep characterized by:

EEG slowing to delta (appear first in the occipital region)

First stage where you feel like you have slept
stage 3 sleep
stage of sleep characterized by:

60% or more of EEG in all regions of the brain in the delta range
stage 4 sleep
stages of sleep that represent deep sleep ("slow wave sleep")

these stages are associated w/ restful sleep, and are required to reduce 'sleep deficit' and daytime somnolence
stages 3 and 4 sleep
EEG (amplitude and velocity)in wakefulness, N-REM sleep, and REM sleep
Waking: low/fast

N-REM sleep: high/slow

REM sleep: low/fast
length of the typical sleep cycle, I-IV?
90 minutes
difference between the first sleep cycle and the rest
the first usually does not include a REM period
sleep characterized by fast, darting, irregular conjugate eye movements

it resembles the waking state

physiologic effects include flaccid paralysis of skeletal muscle and erection of penis and clitoris

most dreaming occurs here
**REM sleep
difference in the deprivation of deep sleep and REM sleep
deep sleep: daytime somnolence, decreased alertness, increased "microsleeps"

REM sleep: decreased attention and concentration, decreased short term memory (>36hr), delirium (>96hr)
A person is woken up from sleep and denies being asleep at all, what stage of sleep where they in?
Stage I
In which stage of sleep do you have no muscle tone?
both REM and Non-REM
REM and memory
During REM see neuronal activity in the mesial temporal lobes which resembles waking short term memory formation seen during the previous day
What happens as total sleep time increases?
Cycles become shallower; less time in stages III and IV

More slow-wave sleep during early hours of sleep than later portion
AGING and sleep?
Sleep cycles become shallower

less deep sleep, total sleep time and cycles per night. Also have more frequent awakeneings.

end up w/ mental and terminal insomnia
How is mood affected during sleep deprivation VS sleep satiation?
Dep - Euphoric...resembles mania

Sat - Dysphoric...resembles depression
DIMS
disoders of the:
intiation and
maintance of
sleep
DOES
Disorder of
Excessive Somnolence
Abnormalities of sleep architecture and REM function?
parasomnias (e.g night terrors, nightmares, somnambulism (sleep walk) and somniloquia (talking in sleep)
Most common sleep complaint, associated w/ aging and poor sleep habits?
Simple insomnia
Transient insomnia results from...?

What is the tx?
Anticipation (anxiety)

BEST indication for very short term use of hypnotics
If you want to help prevent sleep-shifting from jet lag what should youdo?
less disruptive to the sleep cycle if the cycle is advanced and you go to bed later and get up later.
Patient present w/ sleep attacks, catplexy (sudden loss of skeletal muscle), Sleep paralysis (head is awake but not the body), hypnopomic/hypnogogic hallucinations, dx?
Narcolepsy
Peripheral Vs Central sleep apnea
peripheral - airway obstruction

Central - CO2 insensitivity (have periods when they are not breathing then gasp because breathing is driven by hypoxia or O2)
Tx for chronic (simple sleep) insomnia?
Sleep hygeine
Tx of sleep apnea
C-PAP
Tx of middle and terminal insomnia?
Treat depression
Tx of Narcolepsy
Diagnose carefully, use stimulatnts
