While we have touched on sleep deprivation in other episodes, particularly as it relates to confusion with the concept of insomnia, in this episode, we devote the entire program to a discussion of the topic. In this episode we will:
- Define sleep deprivation
- Go through the symptoms of sleep deprivation and research into many of these signs
- Touch upon how we look for and measure sleep deprivation
- Contrast sleep deprivation with insomnia
- List some common causes of sleep deprivation
- Discuss treatment options and relative validity of these interventions
