Age-related Changes In Sleep Spindles Characteristics During Daytime Recovery Following a 25-Hour Sleep Deprivation

Age-related Changes In Sleep Spindles Characteristics During Daytime Recovery Following a 25-Hour Sleep Deprivation

Objectives: The mechanisms underlying sleep spindles (~11-15Hz; >0.5s) help to protect sleep. With age, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain sleep at a challenging time (e.g. daytime), even after sleep loss. This study compared spindle characteristics during daytime recovery and nocturn...
