Abstract
Sleep disorders in older patients can be caused by the changes of aging, physical disorders, psychological problems, certain drugs, or a combination of these. A complete physical examination and a thorough sleep history help in selecting appropriate treatment. Pharmacologic or surgical therapy may be needed, but one or more sleep-hygiene measures are adequate to improve most patients' quality of life when they are asleep--and awake.
摘要
老年患者的睡眠障碍可能由衰老变化、身体疾病、心理问题、某些药物或这些因素的综合作用引起。全面的体格检查和详尽的睡眠史有助于选择合适的治疗方法。可能需要药物或手术治疗，但一项或多项睡眠卫生措施足以改善大多数患者睡眠及清醒时的生活质量。
