The Issue of Sleep Monitoring in the Resuscitation and Intensive Care Units

Key Points

• To explore the prevalence of sleep disorders in intensive care and their impact on patient rehabilitation.
• Assessing sleep patterns using actigraphy in critically ill patients.
• Analyzing sleep and wakefulness through motor activity measurements.
• Focusing on both therapeutic and surgical profiles in a resuscitation setting.
• Identified widespread dyssomnia among patients in intensive care units.
• Noted significant complications associated with poor sleep.
• Suggested actigraphy as an effective tool for future monitoring.
