Voluntary restriction of sleep time
Longer sleep duration on weekends
Disparity between sleep needed and obtained
Associations: SAWED

E - EtOH
D - Depression

What is insomnia
To meet criteria what frequency/duration ?
Behavioural associations
When talking to you about their problem it is clear that they …
BR270
- Difficulty initiating and/or maintaining
- Adequate sleep opportunity
- Ongoing for at least three months and occurring at least three times a week (3/52-12)
- Associated with Fatigue, Decreased motivation. Mood disturbances/irritability. Errors or accidents at work/driving:
F - Fatigue
A - Accidents
M - Motivation
E - Emotions (mood/irritability)
Persistent worry about sleep
Mn - ‘Insomnia is assoc w FAME’.
Define obstructive sleep apnea
How is it quantified/diagnosed ?
How long does an apnea episode last ?
List 5 characteristics / assocations
BR270 & 276
Recurrent apnea or hypopnea during sleep, lasting 10 seconds to one minute, usually quantified as Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) based on polysomnography (sleep study)
AHI Classes a. Mild: 5 to 15, Moderate: 15 to 30, Severe: 30 (5 - 15 - 30 )
Associated with Overweight, Metabolic syndrome, HTN. Increased neck circumference. Loud snoring
=> 2 physical, 1 behavioral, 2 medical
What is the STOP Brief OSA assessment ?
BR270 & 276
STOP: Brief OSA assessment
a) S – Snoring (loud)
b) T – Tired often, fatigued, sleepiness during daytime that inhibits functioning
c) O – Observed patient apnea episodes
d) P – Pressure, elevated blood pressure or taking hypertension medications)
Scoring1. <2 positives = low risk for OSA2. 2 = high risk for OSA: refer for sleep study
Mn: Sam (bus driver)
Define Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS)
How common is it ?
How often does it manifest in sleep ? How ?
What is often associated with RLS ?
BR270
Feeling an urge to move the legs, which can occur with an uncomfortable sensation in the legs that happens when one rests (sitting or lying down)
Worse in the evenings
Movement helps relieve the uncomfortable sensation
Not due to another primary medical cause.
Associated periodic movements of sleep, Fatigued, Periodic involuntary and jerky movements of limbs while awake or at rest
Prevalence: 1 in 7 (5-15% of US population)
Periodic movements of sleep occur in 6/7 (85%)
Periodic limb movements are often associated with RLS
Mn: ReLeaSe a PLuM
What is short sleep misperception?
BR271
Mismatch between sleep duration (polysomnography) and interpretation (patient perceives less sleep than actual sleep duration).
What is narcolepsy ?
What should you do about it ?
BR271
Narcolepsy
= sudden, uncontrollable onset of sleep
=> refer for a sleep study & to see a sleep medicine specialist
What are Periodic Limb Movements ?
Setting with increased prevalence ?
Associations with other disorders ?
What may the patient report ?
BR271
Periodic Limb Movements
- limb movements occurring at ~ 30 second intervals during Sleep
- inc freq with age especially after 50 yrs
- often assoc w restless legs syndrome (RLS)
- may report restless sleep, middle of night awakening, increased daytime sleepiness
Mn: PLuMS
Effect of healthy night sleep on
Cortisol?
Glucose?
Insulin sensitivity?
Daytime leptin?
Food seeking behaviors?
BP and sympathetic tone?
Core body temp?
BR271
Cortisol- lower
Glucose- lower
Insulin sensitivity- higher
Daytime leptin- higher
Food seeking behaviors- reduced
BP and sympathetic tone- lower
Core body temp- lower/cooling
Effect of impaired sleep quality & short duration on:
1) Food intake (2)
2) Daytime [leptin]
BR271
Effect of impaired sleep quality & short duration on:
1) Food intake: increased CHO dense foods, calories esp calories from saturated fat
2) Daytime [leptin] is lower
BR271
List 4 (related) health consequences of short duration and disrupted sleep:
BR271
4 (related) health consequences of short duration and disrupted sleep:
1) Elevated BMI
2) Obesity (2x increased risk)
3) Metabolic syndrome
4) NIDDM

BR271
List 3 cardiovascular outcomes of healthy sleep duration and quality:
BR271
3 cardiovascular outcomes of healthy sleep duration and quality:
1) Lower sympathetic tone & BP
2) Greater nighttime peripheral perfusion & core body temp cooling
3) Increased stamina & faster CV recovery time.
BR271
List 4 intermediate cardiovascular outcomes of impaired sleep duration and quality:
BR271
4 intermediate cardiovascular outcomes of impaired sleep duration and quality:
1) Elevated sympathetic tone
2) Elevated BP esp at night
3) Reduced nighttime peripheral perfusion
4) Increased nighttime core body temperature.
BR271
List 4 cardiovascular outcomes of impaired sleep duration and quality:
BR271
4 cardiovascular outcomes of impaired sleep duration and quality:
1) D - Death - from CV disease
2) I - Infarctions - inc MIs
3) S - Spasm - inc vasospastic disorders
4) H - Htn - refractory w no reduction in early morning hours.
BR271
Mn - GC ‘If you don’t get a good nights sleep, it’s like your heart is on a dish’
Healthy sleep and effects of REM and non REM
BR272
- Higher proportion of sleep time spent in slow wave sleep (stage three, which is the deepest, most restorative stage of non-REM sleep
- Higher proportion in REM leads to enhanced learning and memory, faster cognitive processing, greater anxiety and fear extinguishment(amygdala is able to get rid of the memory of fearful events)
Mn - ‘REM is like RAM - helps memory’
