  1. Sleep Information For Patients In The ICU (set to auto-advance slide) (Lt. Click to Self Advance)

  2. Sleep Cycle • Active sleep- REM (rapid eye movement ) sleep. • Quiet Sleep- NREM ( Non-REM sleep) • NREM sleep has 4 stages. • Stage 4 NREM sleep = deepest sleep. • Hormones released to promote healing and growth during stage 4 NREM sleep.

  3. Human Sleep Cycle • Normal sleep = 4 to 6 sleep cycles. • Each cycle is approx 120-180 min. • Stage 4 NREM sleep is the last 15-30 min.

  4. Sleep Deprivation • Acute or chronic lack of sufficient, quality, restorative sleep. • Being deprived of sleep due to experimental, or real life conditions.

  5. Signs and SymptomsPhysical • Elevated Blood Pressure • Increased Heart Rate • Increased Inflammation • Increased Risk of Cardiovascular Event • Increase Risk of Diabetes • Immunosuppression • Inhibition of Wound Healing • Increased Level of Stress

  6. Deprivation of Sleep“…sleep deprivation can affect the healing process and thus contribute to an increased morbidity and mortality.” -SL Krachman, GE D'Alonzo and GJ Criner Chest, Vol 107, 1713-1720, 1995

  8. Contributing Factors to Sleep Deprivation in the ICU Patient Factors Non-Patient Factors

  9. Patient Related Factors • Age • Gender • Acuity of Illness / Condition • Personality • Motivation

  10. Non-Patient Factors Environment: Lighting, Temperature, Proximity to Noise Frequency of Interruptions: Monitoring, Testing ( CAT scans, X-rays, Labs) Professional Assessments / Interventions Anxiety / Fear Discomfort / Pain Medication Side Effects

  11. Your Nurse Will • Promote Patient Comfort • Promote Pain Control • Promote Sleep/ Consistent Sleep Patterns • Promote Patient Psychological Well-Being • Promote Environment Conducive to Sleep
