decreased motor output/postural recumbence
decreased awareness increase threshold to sensory inputs *above three characterize |
sleep
|
|
is S rapidly reversible
|
yes
|
|
2 types of sleep
|
NREM-->quiet sleep
REM-->paradoxical,active,desync sleep *mammals and birds show both *two types alternate with regular species specific period (oscillator) |
|
EEG set up
|
electrodes (connected to amp) measure variation in voltage
reflects post synaptic membrane potential in cortical neurons integrates many neuron signals *limitation=poor spatial resolution *advantage=fast, simply, cheap |
|
Berger-->first human EEG recordings
α rhythm (Bergers wave)= β rhythm= |
eye closed/relax W
eyes open, lower voltage/higher freq *The α rhythm is replaced by the β rhythm upon eye opening (α blockade) and by a higher voltage, lower frequency activity upon falling asleep |
|
PSG
|
-EEG+EOG+EMG
-represent basis of sleep stage scoring -use freq, amp, pattern of waves to 1) see if person is W or S 2) categorize by stage the depth of sleep |
|
using standardized criteria sleep stages in humans have been _____ scored
|
visually
*following R&K system |
|
importance of R&K system
|
consensus achieved allowing research to advance
|
|
R&K system
|
2 EOG, 1EEG, 1EMG
paper recordings A1/2=reference electrodes, place on ear or mastoid stages: W, NREMS (1-4), REMS |
|
AASM define stages as
|
W
N1,2,3 (NREM stages) R (REM) |
|
modern PSG electrode placement
|
EOG: 2 or 4, 1 reference
EEG: 21 (19scalp+2 ref) in 10-20 system EMG: 2 +1 ref |
|
10-20 system
|
-Measurements on the skull using these landmark points
(nasion, inion, preauricular point) -subdivided into smaller distances based on 10% or 20% increments of the total distances, in the order 10‐20‐20‐20‐20‐10 |
|
describe primary measurements
|
on sagittal plane: nasion to inion (vertex=half way point)
coronal plane: preauricular one one side to other side (pass thru vertex) horizontal plane:from a point 10% up from the nasion to a point 10% up from the nasion, passing 10% up from the preauricular position |
|
how name electrodes
|
1)F=frontal, C=central (central sulcus) T=temporal, P=parietal, O=occipital
2) follow by lower case letter (p=front polar, z=middle region) or # (odd=left hemisphere, even=right hemi) *# increase as more lateral or post |
|
__(2) are nasopharingeal
electrodes, record from the inferior and mesial temporal lobe and the orbitofrontal cortex |
Pg1 and Pg2
|
|
some reference points for EEG's
Pre‐auricular points ___(2) or mastoid points (2) |
A1 and A2
M1 and M2 (behind ears on mastoid process) |
|
montage=
|
electrode placement pattern
each montage determines collection of “channels” or “derivation”, each derived from two electrodes |
|
Referential montages=
Bipolar montages= |
-each electrode compared to
a single reference point. The ipsilateral ear/mastoid or the vertex (Cz) are often used - the voltage difference is measure between one electrode and the next in a “chain” *both allow to localize an EEG activity |
|
Old Grass polysomnographers
|
paper/ink recording very long
more used in animal research *now signals put into comp |
|
derivates of EEG (2)
|
evoked potentials (EP)
event related potentials (ERP) |
|
PSG can also
|
measure many other physiological variables ex) HR
|
|
nasal and oral thermistors measure
|
airflow
|
|
strain gauge, inductance plethysmography measure
|
breathing/respiration rate
|
|
emg can monitor bruxism ie
|
excessive grinding of the teeth and/or excessive clenching of the jaw
|
|
oximetry used to measure
|
O2 blood saturation
|
|
EEG records rhythmic
EEG: ongoing ____ and ____ that stand out from the background brain waves characterized by (3) freq= amp= |
-fluctuating potentials
-background activity, specific events -freq, amp, morphology -between successive peaks (or troughs) of waves, measured in Hz, cycles/sec,or cps -magnitude of electrical potential change between such waves’ peaks and troughs, measured in μV |
