What are the 3 types of rhythms? | Circadian; Infradian; Ultradian |
What is the circadian rhythm? | Cycle occurring every 24 hrs (sleep-wake cycle) |
What is the infradian rhythm? | Longer, slower cycle than circadian (menstrual cycle) |
What is the ultradian rhythm? | Shorter, faster cycle than circadian (cardiac cycle, 90 min. sleep cycle) |
What are other physiological cycles synchronized with the Sleep-Wake Cycle (S-WC)? | 1) body temperature 2) hormone levels 3) cell division |
What are the two phases of sleep? | NREM and REM |
What are the stages of NREM and the corresponding total sleep time (percent)? | Stage 1 (5%); Stage 2 (50-55%); Stage 3 (10%); Stage 4 (10%) |
What is the total sleep time (percent) of REM? | 20-25% |
What are the characteristics of NREM? | Slow rolling eye movement/none, muscle relaxation, decreased pulse, blood pressure and respirations |
What is the function of NREM? | Physical restoration |
What are the characteristics of REM? | Rapid, darting eye movement, small facial twitches, loss of muscle tone, increased pulse, blood pressure and respirations, and irregular pulse and respirations |
What is the function of REM? | Psychological and mental restoration |

What are the symptoms of sleep apnea? | Loud snoring with periods of apnea; frequent awakening at night; excessive daytime sleepiness; morning headaches; fatigue and irritability |
What are treatments for sleep apnea? | Behavioral therapy, physical or mechanical therapy, surgery |
What does behavior therapy consist of in relation to sleep apnea? | Weight loss (if obese); Avoidance of alcohol & smoking; Positional therapy |
What does physical or mechanical therapy consist of for sleep apnea? | Dental appliance or Positive Airway Pressure Device (CPAP or BiPAP) |
What type of surgery is performed for sleep apnea? | 1) Nasal septum repair 2) Palatal surgery |
What measures are used to promote sleep? | 1) Adequate assessment 2) Plan activities to maximize time for rest and sleep 3) Provide comfort measures 4) Establish sleep environment 5) Patient education |
What is involved in order to establish sleep environment? | Presleep/bedtime routine; decrease light & noise; avoid excessive physical & mental stimulation; consistent time for sleep; void before going to bed; avoid alcohol & smoking |
What would be included in your sleep assessment? | Time goes to bed/gets up; # of sleep hrs; naps-when & how long; feels rested |
