Presents information on sleep for older adults from Martin Scharf, director of the Center for Research in Sleep Disorders in Cincinnati. Sleep apnea as an example of a sleep disorder; Need to see a doctor for diagnosis ...
Advanced age is a risk factor for sleep disorders like REM Sleep Behavior Disorder and sleep apnea. (2,3) Sleep patterns change with age, and it’s not uncommon for older adults to spend less time in deep sleep — the most restorative sleep stage. (4) ...
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is a leading treatment for obstructive sleep apnea among older adults. The therapy uses a machine that delivers a constant flow of air at a prescribed setting through a mask.Getting the most suitable CPAP maskis recommended to ensure comfort and ...

Older adults who sleep six hours or fewer a night may have elevated risk for dementia(痴呆症) and other cognitive (认知的) issues, a new study finds. Researchers at Stanford University measured seniors' (ages 65 to 85) dementia risk and cognitive abilities, finding higher risk in those patie...
This study evaluated the external validity of a new metric, the Sleep Regularity Index (SRI), among older adults (n = 1978; mean age 68.7 ± 9.2), as well as relationships between the SRI and cardiometabolic risk using data from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA)....

older- aged adults enriched for AD risk. Additionally, more oxyhemoglobin desaturations during REM sleep versus NREM sleep were associated with worse learning performance, specifically in those that were older than 60 years old andAPOE4carriers. Further, more respiratory events and arousals during ...
In this paper, we provide the first insights into the effectiveness of auditory deep sleep stimulation for older adults in the field. We show that by targeting the up-phase of slow waves we can significantly enhance deep sleep activity on the group level over multiple days. To the best of ...
In older individuals (age 65 and over), sleep duration recommendations are between 7 and 8 hours. Decreases to approximately 6 hours have been observed among the elderly; however, decreases in sleep time in that population may beattributedto the increased incidence ofillnessand use of medications...
