Effect of mini-dose dexmedetomidine supplemented intravenous analgesia on sleep structure in older patients after major noncardiac surgery: A randomized trial
2023, Sleep MedicineCitation Excerpt :Sleep disturbances are common in postsurgical patients, especially those admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) after major surgery [1–6].
Sleep Neurobiology and Critical Care Illness
2016, Sleep Medicine ClinicsCitation Excerpt :Surgical ICU patients best illustrate this fact because PSG can be performed at baseline (before surgery) and after anesthesia using a standardized regimen. The results showed marked reduction or elimination of slow wave sleep and REM sleep during the first 2 postoperative nights, with a significant rebound of REM sleep in the third or fourth postoperative night,33–36,41 contrasting with little35 or no rebound of slow wave sleep.34,36 These results also highlight the need for longitudinal studies describing changes in sleep over time according to the reason for ICU admission and to disease severity.
Sleep Neurobiology and Critical Care Illness
2015, Critical Care ClinicsPostoperative sleep disruptions: A potential catalyst of acute pain?
2014, Sleep Medicine ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Sleep fragmentation and decreased SWS and REM sleep were reported in an ICU [35], but were less marked than in the postoperative period, and this single factor could not explain all postsurgical sleep changes. Regarding surgical stress, the magnitude and duration of surgery have been related to sleep disturbances [9,38,44]. Although surgery duration was related to the duration of sleep complaints, especially in heart surgery [44], surgical trauma appears to be a major sleep disturbance factor, with potential mechanisms being endocrine, autonomic, and inflammatory stress responses to surgery [9,38].

2011, Anesthesiology ClinicsCitation Excerpt :Although many studies have shown that the total number of sleep hours may be normal over 24 hours, they are distributed across day and night in short periods.3,4,6 A disproportionate amount of time is spent in light sleep (non–rapid eye movement [NREM] sleep stages I and II) and wakefulness and a relatively small percentage of time in deep sleep (slow wave sleep [SWS], formerly referred to as NREM stages III and IV) and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.3,5,7,8,10,11 Experimental models of sleep fragmentation and sleep stage deprivation have demonstrated many of the same consequences as with periods of total sleep deprivation, but controlled studies have not been done in the critically ill.12,13
