stimulus. What Rhythm of EEG (Waves) was he having,
and it changed to what Rhythm of EEG?

21. SLEEPConsciousness :
Awareness of one’s
existence,
thoughts and
Surroundings
Sleep :
an unconsciousness
from which the person
can be aroused by
sensory or other stimuli

Types of Sleep
(Non-Rapid Eye Movement & Rapid Eye Movement)
1. NREM (slow wave sleep) 75 %
Characteristics:
1. Deep restful
2. 4 stages (Stage 1,2,3,4)
3. EEG: High amplitude slow waves
4. Dreamless sleep
5. Body movements, like change of side
6. Decrease vegetative functions

2. REM Sleep (Desynchronized)
5 – 30 min
Every 90 min
Duration decrease with deep sleep
Characteristics:
1. Active dreaming
2. Difficult to arouse (morning)
3. Decreased or absent muscle tone
4. H.R, R.R irregular
5. Few irregular muscles movements (eyes)
6. Active brain
7. EEG: Rapid, low voltage

Genesis of NREM Sleep
Stimulation of synchronizing regions:
1. Basal fore-brain sleep zone:
• Raphe nuclei in lower half of pons and medulla
• Serotonin
2. Medullary synchronizing zone:
• Reticular formation of medulla at level of tractus solitarius

3. Diencephalic sleep zone:
• Posterior Hypothalamus
• Intralaminal and anterior Thalamic nuclei
• Mechanism:
• Low / high frequency stimulation
• Mechano-receptor stimulation
• Regular repeated monotonous stimulation

Hinweis der Redaktion Alpha rhythm changed to beta Non-sensory (or other) stimuli:
Blood Pressure
Digestive-system response
Endocrine-system response
Cellular response
In NREM there is activation of autonomic nervous system, motor system, or cognitive processes.
In REM, cause is idiopathic.
