Sleep Disorders and Sleep Deprivation: An Unmet Public Health Problem
Book providing information about sleep problems and sleep disorders written by Harvey R. Colten
Clinical practice
related to sleep problems and sleep disorders has been expanding rapidly
in the last few years, but scientific research is not keeping pace.
Sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless legs syndrome are three examples of
very common disorders for which we have little biological information.
This new book cuts across a variety of medical disciplines such as
neurology, pulmonology, pediatrics, internal medicine, psychiatry,
psychology, otolaryngology, and nursing, as well as other medical
practices with an interest in the management of sleep pathology. This
area of research is not limited to very young and old patients - sleep
disorders reach across all ages and ethnicities.
