Abstract

Polysomnography is the most comprehensive sleep study, a multi-parametric recording test (electroencephalography, electrooculogram, chin and limbs electromyogram, respiratory and cardiac functions and permanent video-recording), used as an important diagnostic tool for the sleep disorders. Sleep architecture or the sleep macrostructure is a term used to describe the divisions of sleep into specific sleep stages using electro encephalographic (EEG), electrooculographic (EOG) and electromyographic (EMG) criteria: NREM (non-rapid eye movements) stages – N1, N2 and N3, and REM (rapid eye movements) stage.
