  • SLEEP DISORDERS Sleep Disorders Are Common Among the Elderly and Occur in up to 50% of Individuals Over the Age of 65
    MEDICAL NOTES Valerie J. Shereck, MSN, ANP-C SLEEP DISORDERS Sleep disorders are common among the elderly and occur in up to 50% of individuals over the age of 65. Sleep disorders are defined as the inability to fall asleep, stay asleep, sleeping too much, or having abnormal, sleep-related behaviors. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine categorizes them into the following major groups: insomnia, hypersomnia (excessive sleepiness), sleep-related breathing disorders, circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders, parasomnias (sleep disorders that include unwanted events or experiences that occur while people are falling asleep, sleeping, or waking up), and sleep movement disorders. In this article, discussion will be limited to insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, and restless leg syndrome. As people age, the timing and amount of sleep changes. Older individuals tend to fall asleep earlier and awaken earlier and are less tolerant of changes in the sleep-wake cycle (i.e., jet lag and daylight saving time). Daytime napping in older adults may compensate for poor nighttime sleep, but napping can also contribute to poor nighttime sleep. Sleep efficiency also decreases from 95% during adolescence to less than 80%. TWO TYPES OF SLEEP The two main types of sleep are non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. * NREM Sleep is divided into four stages based upon the amount and frequency of different types of brain waves (electrical activity of the brain). Stage I occurs as people become drowsy and fall into a light sleep. Stage II, where most sleep time is spent, is a continuation of light sleep.
