• Discuss nursing process for a patient to promote
sleep.
Definition
Rest refers to a state of relaxation and calmness.
Sleep refers to a state of altered consciousness in which
the individual's perception of and reaction to the
environment are decreased. An individual experiences
minimal physical activity and a general slowing of the
body’s physiological processes.
Introduction to Sleep
• Basic Human Need
• Universal Biological Process
• Reticular Activating system is involved in
sleep-wake cycle
• Average sleep cycle is 90-110 minutes
• Humans spend about 1/3 of their lives asleep
Physiology of Rest and Sleep
• An intact cerebral cortex and reticular
formation are necessary for the regulation of
sleep and waking states.
• Certain neurotransmitters (like serotonin,
dopamine etc.)
• Hormones (melatonin)
• Circadian Rhythms (biological rhythms
which controls human processes like sleep-
awake, Blood Pressure and temperature etc).
Sleep and Rest
Sleep Rest
Sleep involves unconscious
breathing
Rest occurs with conscious
breathing
It consists of four stages No stages are involved
Its is compulsory for normal
functions
It is consider healthy
Sometimes medication to
induce sleep
Usually no medication
required
Its is a cyclic process Rest can be taken anytime
Types of Sleep
–NREM Sleep
• Non –Rapid Eye Movement sleep
–REM Sleep
• Rapid Eye Movement Sleep
SLEEP STAGES NREM
Stage I
• Relaxed & drowsy
• Usually last only for a min
• heart and respiratory rates drop slightly
• Eye rolls from side to side
Stage II
• Light sleep in which body processes continuous to
slow down
• Eyes are generally still
• Body temperature goes down
• Needs more stimuli relative to stage I to be aroused
• Lasts 10-15 min
SLEEP STAGES NREM
Stage III
• Less easily arouse
• Muscle totally relaxed
• B.P lower down
• Body temperature lowers
• Lasts about 10 minutes
Stage IV:
• Deep sleep stage
• Rarely moves
• Muscles complete relaxed
• Difficult to arouse
• Lasts about 30 minutes
SLEEP STAGES REM
• Recurs about every 90 min & last 5-30 mins
• Not as restful as NREM(brain is highly active )
• Gastric secretions increased, heart and respiratory
rates are irregular.
• Distinctive eye movements occur
• Muscle tone decreases
• Most dream take place in REM
• Difficult to arouse or may wake spontaneously
NREM Stage I NREM Stage 2 NREM Stage 3 NREM Stage 4
Pre sleep
NREM Stage 3
NREM Stage 2
REM Sleep
NREM Stage 2
Sleep Cycle
• During a sleep cycle, people typically pass
through NREM and REM sleep.
• The complete cycle usually lasting about 90 to
110 minutes in adults.
• The healthy adult sleeper usually experiences
four to six cycles of sleep during 7 to 8 hours
• The sleeper who is awakened during any stage
must begin anew at stage I NREM sleep and
proceed through all the stages to REM sleep.
Dreaming
When people sleep, they experience period of
Rapid Eye Movement. During this stage, which is
associated with dreaming, the brain becomes very
active. REM sleep and dreaming are triggered by
the Pons and neighboring structures in the
brainstem.
Functions of Sleep
• Optimal Psychological Functioning
• Cope with daily stresses
• Prevent fatigue
• Save Energy for day time activities
• Restore Mind and Body
• Enjoy Life fully
• Enhances daytime functioning
• Physiological Functioning such as:
– Healing of damaged Tissues increases
– Strengthens immunity
Factors Affecting Sleep
• Age
• Illness
• Life style
• Environment
• Change of environment
• Emotional stress
• Stimulants and alcohols
• Diet
• Smoking
• Change in circadian rhythm
• Motivation
• Medication (refer to Article 01)
Common Sleep Disorders
• Insomnia
1. Inability to falling asleep or remaining asleep
• Excessive Day time sleepiness
1. Hypersomnia :affected individual obtains
sufficient sleep at night but still cannot stay
awake during the day.
2. Narcolepsy : extreme tendency to fall
asleep caused by the lack of the chemical
hypocretin in the area of the central nervous
system that regulates sleep.
Common Sleep Disorders
• Sleep Apnea: Sleep apnea is
characterized by frequent short breathing
pauses during sleep.
• Parasomnia: sleep disorders that involve
abnormal movements (sleep walking,
talking and nightmares)
How to Promote Sleep
• Sleep pattern
• Environment
• Diet
• Medication
Nursing Management
Assessing
– Sleep History
– Health History
– Physical Examination
– Diagnostic Studies
Nursing Management
Diagnosing
Various factors or etiologies may be involved and must
be specified for the individual
Example: disturbed sleep pattern related to
• respiratory dysfunction
•Incontinence
•Inadequate daytime activity
•Excessive daytime sleeping
• environmental change ( hospitalization, traveling etc)
Nursing Management
Planning/ Goals:
By the end of my shift pt will be able to:
• Describe factor(s) that prevent or inhibit sleep
• Identify technique(s) to induce sleep
By the end of hospitalization
• The pt will report an adequate sleep.
Nursing Management
Implementing
– Sleep Hygiene
• Sleep pattern
• Environment
• Diet
• Medication (if prescribed)
Nursing Management
• Client Teaching
• Supporting Bed Time Rituals
• Creating a Restful Environment (noiseless, night
lamp/bulb)
• Promoting Comfort and Relaxation
• Limit caffeine intake
• Plan daytime activities
• Void before sleeping
• Enhancing Sleep with Medication (if prescribed)
• (refer to Article 2)
Evaluation
By the end of my shift pt was able to:
• Described two factors that prevent or inhibit
sleep
• Identified several techniques to induce sleep
By the end of hospitalization
• The pt reported an adequate sleep.
