Synonomous with REM sleep, the preferred term

A

Paradoxical Sleep

34

Occurrene of an event during the transition from wakefulness to sleep

A

Hypnogogic

35
Q

Occurrence of an event during the transition from sleep to wakefulness

A

Hypnopompic

36
Q

An episode of shallow breathing (diminished airflow) during sleep lasting 10 seconds or longer; usually associated with a fall in blood oxygen saturation value.

A

Hypopnea

37
Q

Difficulty in initiating and/or maintaining sleep.

A

Insomnia

38
Q

A sharp, biphasic EEG wave followed by a high voltage slow wave. The complex duration is at least 0.5 seconds and may be accompanied by a sleep spindle.

A

K Complex

39
Q

Term used to denote and unpleasant and frightening dream that usually occurs in REM sleep. AKA dream anxiety attack

A

Nightmare

40
Q

A series of measurements to assess wakefulness in darkened room while in a semi reclined position. Long latencies to sleep are indicative of ability to remain awake. most useful for assessing the effects of medications upon the ability to remain awake.

A

Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT)

41
Q

A series of measurements whereby subjects are allowed a fixed number of opportunities to fall asleep during their customary awake period. Excessive sleepiness is characterized by short latencies. long latencies are helpful in distinguishing physical tiredness or fatigue from true sleepiness.

A

Multiple Sleep Latency Test

42
Q

EEG and EOG tracings are obscured for more than half the scoring epoch because of movement. The preceding and succeeding opochs are in sleep.

Respiratory Disturbance Index (RDI)

59
Q

Periodic Movement of Sleep (PMS) is also known as ?

A

Periodic Limb movement

60
Q

Immobility of the body that occurs in the transition from sleep to wakefulness which is a partial manifestation of REM sleep

A

Sleep paralysis

61
Q

The natural periodic cycle of penile erections that occur during sleep, typically associated with REM sleep; Consists of 4 phases: T-up, T-max, T-down, and t-zero. It is preferred term over NPT

A

Sleep Related Erections (SRE’s)

62
Q

Somniloqui is also known as what?

A

Sleep Talking

63
Q

What stage of sleep does sleep talking normally occur?

  1. REM
  2. NREM
  3. During transitory arousals from NREM
  4. During Delta sleep

A. 1 & 2
B. 1 & 3
