Zusammenfassung: | Objectives
To evaluate age‐related differences in sleep–wake symptoms.
Design
Cross‐sectional.
Setting
Technologist‐attended, laboratory‐based polysomnography (PSG).
Participants
Community‐dwelling adults aged 20 to 89 (N = 201): 52 aged 18 to 39, 72 aged 40 to 59, and 77 aged 60 and older.
Measurements
Medical burden (Charlson Comorbidity Index, medications, health status), PSG‐defined sleep disorders (sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB), sleep‐associated hypoxemia, periodic limb movements in sleep (PLMS)), sleep–wake symptoms (Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), fatigue (Facit‐F Scale)).
Results
Medical burden increased significantly with age (Charlson Comorbidity Index and number of medications, P |
