lüll Sleep disorders in the elderly Roepke SK; Ancoli-Israel SIndian J Med Res 2010[Feb]; 131 (ä): 302-10Nearly half of older adults report difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep. With age, several changes occur that can place one at risk for sleep disturbance including increased prevalence of medical conditions, increased medication use, age-related changes in various circadian rhythms, and environmental and lifestyle changes. Although sleep complaints are common among all age groups, older adults have increased prevalence of many primary sleep disorders including sleep-disordered breathing, periodic limb movements in sleep, restless legs syndrome, rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behaviour disorder, insomnia, and circadian rhythm disturbances. The present review discusses age-related changes in sleep architecture, aetiology, presentation, and treatment of sleep disorders prevalent among the elderly and other factors relevant to ageing that are likely to affect sleep quality and quantity.|*Aging[MESH]|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Age Factors[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Aged, 80 and over[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Circadian Rhythm[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Restless Legs Syndrome/diagnosis/epidemiology[MESH]|Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders[MESH]|Sleep Wake Disorders/*diagnosis/*epidemiology[MESH]|Sleep, REM[MESH] |
