Prolonged sleep deprivation is a relatively frequent situation during military training or warfare. A 60-hour sleep deprivation experiment was carried out on eight healthy volunteers of the French Air Force to assess drowsiness. Parameters used to assess drowsiness were questionnaires on behavior, measurement of sleep latency (MSLT), continuous electroencephalogram recording, and number of response failures or control losses observed during repeated psychomotor tests. Results showed a gradual decrement in arousal in all subjects and for all tests. These results, consistent with the literature, confirm the emergence of drowsiness after the 24th hour of uninterrupted wakefulness. This phenomenon had an increasingly negative effect on performance due to "micro-sleep" episodes which substantially reduced psychomotor performance.
长期睡眠剥夺在军事训练或战争期间是一种相对常见的情况。对八名法国空军健康志愿者进行了一项60小时睡眠剥夺实验以评估嗜睡情况。用于评估嗜睡的参数包括行为问卷、睡眠潜伏期测量(MSLT)、连续脑电图记录以及在重复心理运动测试中观察到的反应失败或控制失误次数。结果显示,所有受试者在所有测试中觉醒程度都逐渐下降。这些与文献一致的结果证实,在连续清醒24小时后会出现嗜睡现象。由于“微睡眠”发作大幅降低了心理运动表现,这种现象对表现产生了越来越负面的影响。
