Abstract

Sleep medicine as it is known today actually started as research and scientific study, not as clinical medicine. When one considers that sleep medicine today is in its infancy, it is obvious that there is much more to learn. The history of sleep dates back to the 1880s. However, the most significant developments that moved sleep forward into the practice of medicine, and eventually dentistry, occurred from the 1950s on. This article explores the highlights of the history of sleep and sleep medicine.

摘要

我们今天所熟知的睡眠医学实际上始于研究和科学探索，而非临床医学。考虑到当今睡眠医学仍处于起步阶段，显然还有很多有待学习的地方。睡眠的历史可以追溯到19世纪80年代。然而，推动睡眠医学进入医学实践，并最终进入牙科领域的最重要发展发生在20世纪50年代以后。本文将探讨睡眠及睡眠医学历史的要点。
