Popis: | Sleep and dreams in 15 chronic alcoholic patients with amnesia were compared with sleep and dreams of 15 age- and sex-adjusted normal subjects. The patients were subjected to psychological tests in order to determine their I.Q. and their memory disturbances. All subjects had two nights of polygraphic recordings; the first tested the natural sleep organization. During the second night, they were awakened 7 min after the onset of each REM sleep episode, and, at least once, 20 min after the onset of a stage II episode, in order to record on a tape their dream reports according to a standardized protocol. The sleep patterns of the amnesic patients did not show any significant alteration. However, after wakening during the night, patients exhibited a higher tendency to return to REMS than controls. There was still some dream activity in those patients, although noticeably less frequently, and their dream activity had a very poor verbal expression. However, there was no change with respect to the spatio-temporal organization, sensorial perceptions, motor activity and verbalizations during their dreams. |
