The role and importance of the number of awakenings and their duration in relation to increasing intervening wakefulness were investigated. The data were collected from a group of 38 subjects suffering from chronic primary insomnia, aged 17-70 years, polygraphically recorded; the analysis was made on the second night. With age, the total quantity of intervening wakefulness increases more quickly than the total number of awakenings. The amount of wakefulness due to awakenings lasting greater than or equal to 3 min increases with age. Older insomniacs wake up somewhat more often but, above all, they go back to sleep less quickly. Our hypothesis is that in old patients insomnia is linked to an increase in stability of wakefulness.
研究了觉醒次数及其持续时间在增加中间清醒时间方面的作用和重要性。数据收集自38名患有慢性原发性失眠的受试者，年龄在17至70岁之间，通过多导睡眠图记录；分析在第二晚进行。随着年龄增长，中间清醒的总时长比觉醒总次数增长得更快。持续时间大于或等于3分钟的觉醒导致的清醒时长随年龄增加。年长的失眠患者醒来的频率略高，但最重要的是，他们重新入睡的速度较慢。我们的假设是，老年患者的失眠与清醒稳定性增加有关。
