Abstract:
Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) may occur in a variety of ways. While obstructive sleep apnea is the most common of these, this chapter reviews the most common types of SDB that occur independently of upper airway obstruction. In many cases, there is concurrent upper airway obstruction and neurological respiratory dysregulation. Thus, along with attempts to correct the underlying etiologies (when present), stabilization of the upper airway is most often combined with flow generators (noninvasive positive pressure ventilation devices) that modulate the inadequate ventilatory pattern. Among these devices, when continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) alone does not allow correction of SDB, adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) is increasingly used for non-hypercapnic types of central sleep apnea (CSA), while bilevel PAP in spontaneous-timed mode (BPAP-ST) is more often reserved for hypercapnic CSA/alveolar hypoventilation syndromes. Coordination of care among neurologists, cardiologists, and sleep specialists will often benefit such patients.

Abstract:
This chapter describes positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy for sleep disordered breathing. Continuous PAP (CPAP) acts as a mechanical splint on the upper airway and is the treatment of choice for moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Autotitrating CPAP may be used when the pressure demand for stabilizing the upper airway is quite variable. In other cases, fixed CPAP is sufficient. There is robust evidence that CPAP reduces the symptomatic burden and risk of cardiovascular comorbidity in patients with moderate to severe OSA. Bilevel PAP is indicated for treatment of respiratory diseases characterized by chronic alveolar hypoventilation, which typically deteriorates during sleep. Adaptive servo-ventilation is a mode of bilevel PAP used to treat Cheyne–Stokes respiration with central sleep apnea . It is crucial that caregivers help patients get used to and be compliant with PAP therapy. Education, support, and resolution of adverse effects are mandatory for therapeutic success.

Abstract:
A Troubled Sleep: Risk and Resilience in Contemporary Northern Ireland revisits one of the world’s most deeply divided societies more than 20 years after a peace agreement brought an end to the Troubles. The book asks if the conflict, while perhaps managed and contained, has been transformed—structurally and relationally—into a win-win situation for both sides. It addresses this question by drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, comparative research, and more than 110 hours of face-to-face interviews with politicians, activists, community workers, former political prisoners, former (and sometimes current) paramilitary members, academics, journalists, mental health practitioners, tour guides, school teachers, museum curators, students, police and military personnel, legal experts, and religious leaders across Northern Ireland. The heart of the book analyzes Northern Ireland’s current vulnerabilities and points of resilience as an allegedly “post-conflict” society. The vulnerabilities are analyzed through a model of risk assessment that examines the longer term and slower moving structures, measures, society-wide conditions, and processes that leave societies vulnerable to violent conflict. Such risk factors include the interpretation of conflict history, how authority in a country is exercised, and the susceptibility to social disharmony, isolation, and fragmentation. Resilience is examined from a survey of the countering influences, both within and outside Northern Ireland, that are working diligently to confirm humanity by reducing or reversing these vulnerabilities. The book concludes by examining the accelerating factors in contemporary Northern Ireland that may lead to an escalation of crisis as well as the triggering factors that could spark the onset of violent conflict itself.

Abstract:
Sleep paralysis is an experience of being temporarily unable to move or talk during the transitional periods between sleep and wakefulness: at sleep onset or upon awakening. The feeling of paralysis may be accompanied by a variety of vivid and intense sensory experiences, including mentation in visual, auditory, and tactile modalities, as well as a distinct feeling of presence. This chapter discusses a variety of sleep paralysis experiences from the perspective of enactive cognition and cultural neurophenomenology. Current knowledge of neurophysiology and associated conditions is presented, and some techniques for coping with sleep paralysis are proposed. As an experience characterized by a hybrid state of dreaming and waking, sleep paralysis offers a unique window into phenomenology of spontaneous thought in sleep.

Abstract:
Sleep disturbances represent frequent distressing symptoms in the palliative care setting. The more common disorders include insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, and circadian rhythm sleep disorders. The most prevalent sleep disorder, insomnia, includes difficulty initiating and/or maintaining sleep, waking up too early, and non-restorative or poor quality sleep. Primary sleep disturbances are thought to be a disorder of hyperarousal, while a hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis dysfunction has also been confirmed. Secondary sleep disorders have been associated with a large number of potential causes, both physical and psychological. Sleep disturbances in palliative care can be due to either the advanced disease and/or its treatment. Chronic medication use, neurological or psychiatric disorders, as well as environmental factors, can also present contributing factors. This chapter discusses the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disturbances, both pharmacological and non-pharmacological, including cognitive behavioural therapy, the cornerstone of non-pharmacological interventions.

Abstract:
Sleep Medicine is now a specialty in its own right and many advances have occurred in recent years. Large-database studies from drug companies or general population surveys have indicated the general health impact of narcolepsy, particularly on the childhood and adolescent populations. Obesity has become a significant health problem. Sleep and its restriction has a drastic impact on regulation of metabolic function. A clearer understanding of the growth and development of the orofacial region during early childhood has led to the recognition of factors that increase collapsibility of the upper airway. Restless legs syndrome is a pain syndrome that continues to be under-diagnosed and left untreated particularly in children. Younger individuals are restricting more and more of their sleep, and they experience sleep disruption related to usage of electronic gadgets late at night. Another large health problem is the increasing number of elderly people with cognitive and sleep impairment

Abstract:
We all know how important sleep is, but many of us struggle to consistently get enough high-quality rest. This book answers readers' sleep-related questions and offers guidance for a better night's slumber. Part of Bloomsbury’s Q&A Health Guides series, this book aims to educate teens and young adults about the importance of sleep through an engaging question-and-answer format. The book’s 44 questions cover the basics of sleep and dreaming, the connection between sleep and health, sleep problems and disorders, and how to improve sleep: - Why exactly is sleep so important? - How does not getting enough impact physical wellbeing, academic performance, and interactions with others? - How do you know if you have a sleep disorder? - Can caffeine and power naps really make up for poor sleep habits? The text strikes a balance between theory and practice, offering both clear explanations of foundational concepts in sleep science and useful suggestions that readers can implement in their own lives. Augmenting the main text, a collection of 5 case studies illustrate key concepts and issues through relatable stories and insightful recommendations. The "Common Misconceptions" section at the beginning of the volume dispels 5 long-standing myths about sleep, directing readers to additional information in the text. The glossary defines terms that may be unfamiliar to readers, while a directory of resources curates a list of the most useful sleep-related books, websites, and other materials. Finally, whether they’re looking for more information about sleep or any other health-related topic, readers can turn to the "Guide to Health Literacy" section for practical tools and strategies for finding, evaluating, and using credible sources of health information both on and off the Internet.

Abstract:
Sleep is associated with substantial changes in gastrointestinal functioning that have considerable clinical relevance Symptoms of sleep-related dysfunction are common and are primarily related to sleep-related heartburn and regurgitation. Sleep disturbances accompany several other gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Sleep-related gastroesophageal reflux (GER) has been shown to plan a major role in the pathogenesis of more complicated gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), notably via a prolongation of acid contact. Mucosal damage has been shown to be more closely associated with this pattern of reflux in comparison with waking reflux, which is associated with more frequent but very short reflux events. Sleep disturbance is also associated with a visceral hyperalgesia that enhances pain responses associated with acid–mucosal contact. Sleep does influence intestinal motility, but further research is needed to confirm the details of exactly how intestinal motility is modulated by sleep.

Abstract:
Central sleep apnoea and Cheyne-Stokes respiration are common forms of sleep-disordered breathing, particularly in patients with co-morbidities such as cardiac and renal disease which, however, often do not require specific treatment. Physicians may encounter such patients in their outpatient clinics or as ward referrals in hospital. A typical case is presented to aid the approach to such patients, including how to make an accurate diagnosis, which of the various treatment modalities to use, and what to do if a treatment fails. The evidence for the different interventions is explored, including oxygen, modes of non-invasive positive airway pressure, and drug treatments, with particular attention to groundbreaking studies.

Abstract:
Sleep is important for children’s physical, cognitive, and social functioning. The most common sleep disorder contributing to inadequate sleep and daytime impairments in pediatric populations is insomnia. There are both biological and behavioral factors that can contribute to insomnia; therefore, understanding sleep processes, how sleep changes throughout development, and which common behaviors influence sleep is important. Measurement of sleep through both objective and subjective measures plays an important role in the identification, diagnosis, and intervention of insomnia. First-line treatment for insomnia includes psychoeducation, healthy sleep practices, and behavioral and cognitive strategies. Children with special needs are at especially high risk for sleep problems, and treatment of insomnia in these populations should aim to minimize sleep disturbances without increasing other comorbid symptoms. Moving forward, healthcare professionals require access to more comprehensive education on pediatric sleep, and greater public awareness of the importance of sleep and health is needed.

Abstract:
Sleep-related movement disorders are conditions characterized by simple and usually stereotyped movements that disturb sleep. They comprise periodic limb movement disorder, nocturnal leg cramps, sleep-related bruxism, sleep-related rhythmic movement disorder, and movement disorders due to drugs or medical conditions. Some of these movements, such as bruxism, might occur during both wakefulness and sleep, but a clear worsening of the symptoms during sleep is necessary in order to include the condition among sleep-related movement disorders. Sleep-related movement disorders may occasionally be present in healthy individuals, but the manifestations must disturb sleep with daytime consequences in order to be classified within this group of disorders. Finally, sleep-related movement disorders must be distinguished from parasomnias, such as sleepwalking or rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD), which normally show more complex muscular patterns and behaviors.

Abstract:
The Big Sleep: Marlowe and Vivian practising kissing; General Sternwood shivering in a hothouse full of orchids; a screenplay, co-written by Faulkner, famously mysterious and difficult to solve. Released in 1946, Howard Hawks' adaptation of Raymond Chandler reunited Bogart and Bacall and gave them two of their most famous roles. The mercurial but ever-manipulative Hawks dredged humour and happiness out of film noir. 'Give him a story about more murders than anyone can keep up with, or explain,' David Thomson writes in his compelling study of the film, 'and somehow he made a paradise.' When it was first shown to a military audience The Big Sleep was coldly received. So, as Thomson reveals, Hawks shot extra scenes, 'fun' scenes, to replace one in which the film's murders had been explained, and in so doing left the plot unresolved. Thomson argues that, if this was accidental, it also signalled a change in the nature of Hollywood cinema: 'The Big Sleep inaugurates a post-modern, camp, satirical view of movies being about other movies that extends to the New Wave and Pulp Fiction.'

Abstract:
Approximately 70 million people in the United States are affected by a sleep problem. About 40 million Americans suffer from chronic sleep disorders, and an additional 20-30 million are affected by intermittent sleep-related problems. However, an overwhelming majority of sleep disorders remain undiagnosed and untreated. Some of the most common ones are insomnia, restless legs syndrome, parasomnias, circadian rhythm disorders, excessive daytime sleepiness, night terrors, sleep apnea, periodic limb movement disorder, and narcolepsy. Long standing sleep disturbances can lead to nonproductive lifestyles, poor work performance, weight gain, difficulty with concentration, and social avoidance. Some disorders, like sleep apnea, can lead to even more serious problems such as high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke. Therefore, there is an urgent need for this introduction to the subject of sleep disorders. Chapters include information on symptoms and problems that signal a possible sleep disorder, descriptions of sleep loss effects and their demographics, definitions of common sleep disorders, explanations of various medical and psychological tests for sleep disorder diagnosis, essential medical treatments, guided intervention to change thinking about sleep and related health habits, alternative interventions, follow-up and maintenance issues, and behavioral changes. Appendices include a list of accredited sleep laboratories and resources, suggested readings, and suggested exercises and activities.

Abstract:
Parasomnias are a heterogeneous group of undesirable, but not always pathological, manifestations that accompany sleep. They consist in abnormal behaviors due to the inappropriate activation of cognitive processes or physiological systems such as the motor and/or autonomic nervous systems. In some cases, they can result in sleep disruption and injuries, with adverse health or psychosocial consequences for patients, bed-partners or both. According to the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, parasomnias are distinguished on the basis of the stage of sleep in which they appear: (1) parasomnias arising from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) sleep, which include arousal disorders (confusional arousal, sleep terror, sleepwalking) and sleep-related eating disorders; (2) parasomnias associated with REM (rapid eye movement) sleep; and (3) “other parasomnias” occurring in any sleep stage (eg, sleep enuresis, exploding head syndrome). This chapter describes the NREM parasomnias and the “other parasomnias,” underlining the more recent and significant advances that have provided a better understanding of their clinical features and pathophysiology.

Abstract:
Epilepsy is the commonest serious chronic neurological condition, affecting 0.5% of the population in the UK. Subjective sleep disturbance and excessive daytime sleepiness are reported to be 50% more frequent in those with epilepsy than in controls. Causes are multiple. Both poor seizure control and nocturnal attacks are known to contribute to such sleep disorders. Epilepsy also increases the risk of associated sleep disorders, and additional neurological conditions, such as dementia, learning disability, and depression. These all affect sleep hygiene. Prescribed anti-epileptic drugs will further aggravate the problem. Side-effects will include drowsiness. Sedating benzodiazepines and barbiturates are considered worst offenders. Others affect sleep architecture to varying degrees and/or cause insomnia. While hyper-somnolence in patients with epilepsy will raise the possibility of any of the above issues, sleep deprivation is one of the commonest seizure triggers. This chapter will shed more light on the intricate relationship between sleep and epilepsy.

Abstract:
Sleep disorders are an increasingly common reason for referral to the respiratory clinic, and our understanding of the different aetiologies is increasing. The commonest sleep disorder is sleep apnoea, but other sleep disorders can cause similar symptoms. Narcolepsy is a neurological disorder that affects the brain’s ability to regulate the normal sleep-wake cycle and often presents with similar symptoms to obstructive sleep apnoea, daytime hypersomnolence, and disturbed night-time sleeping but is largely underdiagnosed. This chapter discusses a patient who presented with symptoms of daytime somnolence and witnessed apnoeas and details the investigations required for a diagnosis of narcolepsy. It covers the more specialized sleep studies required for a clinical diagnosis and the treatment options available for patients with this condition.
