    Circadian rhythm
  5. This clock synchronizes sleep cycles?
    Bilogical clocks
  6. What does your biological clock do?
    Synchronizes sleep cycles
  7. Define the stages in NREM?
    • Stage 1 - lightest sleep/easy to arouse

    • Stage 3 - deepest sleep/difficult to arouse
    • Stage 4 - vivid full color dreaming/90 min after sleep cycle
  8. This stage of REM is the lightest sleep stage, lasts minutes, and the individual gradually has their vital signs fall. They are easy to arouse, name this stage?
    Stage 1
  9. This stage is sound sleep and relaxation. The individual progresses easily into sleep as their vitals gradually fall, they are easy to arouse, it lasts 10-20 minutes and body functions begin to slow...name this stage of sleep?
    Stage 2

    Stage 3
  11. This stage of sleep the individual experiences vivid full color dreaming. It occurs 90 minutes after sleeping. This is called the REM stage of sleep where loss of skeletal muscle/gastric secretions increase and the individual is difficult to arouse. The stage lasts 20 minutes on average...name this sleep stage?

    • Medications, pregnancy,
  29. A middle adult needs how many hours of sleep? What is the total hours spent in REM sleep? What are common components that disrupt sleep/
    • 6-8 hours (more on the lower end - time spent sleeping declines)
    • REM sleep begins to fall (Stage 4)
    • Insomnia is commone
  30. What is the total number of hours needed for older adults sleep? How many hours are spent in REM? What are common components that disrupt sleep?
