Adequate sleep is fundamental to workplace performance. For volunteer firefighters who work in safety critical roles, poor performance at work can be life threatening. Extended shifts and sleeping conditions negatively impact sleep during multi-day f

The study aimed to document the neurobehavioral outcomes of patients referred to and treated by a sleep medicine service for moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In particular, we aimed to establish the proportion of patients who, while

Publikováno v: Thorax. 65(2)

Patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) have reduced event rates during slow wave sleep (SWS) compared with stage 2 sleep. To explore this phenomenon, ventilatory and arousal timing responses to partial and complete airflow obstruction during SW

Publikováno v: Sleep.

Study Objectives: Sustained hypoxia is a neurocognitive depressant, which has been shown to impair respiratory load sensation. Hypoxia has also been shown to impair arousal in animal models, but the effects of sustained hypoxia on arousal in humans h
