    Sleep is divided into two main categories: non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. NREM sleep has 4 stages that progress from light sleep to deep sleep. REM sleep is characterized by rapid eye movements and vivid dreaming. NREM sleep makes up 75% of total sleep and provides restoration, while REM sleep makes up 25% and supports brain development and memory consolidation. Understanding the stages of sleep is important for diagnosing sleep disorders.

    Stages of sleep

    • Sleep is unconsciousness from which a person


    can be aroused by sensory or other stimuli
    Stages of sleep
    • NREM
    Subdivided :
    1. Stage 1 (NREM 1)
    2. Stage 2 (NREM 2)
    3. Stage 3 According American Academy of
    4. Stage 4 Sleep, stage 3 and 4 became
    • REM NREM 3
    Non REM
    • Deep, restful sleep
    • Occurs the 1st hour of sleep
    • Decreased peripheral vascular & vegetative
    function (↓BP, ↓RR, ↓BMR)
    • Dreamless sleep
    STAGE 1
    • Transtitional phase between wakefulness and
    more definite sleep.
    • Arousal threshold is low
    • Brain wave : diminished alpha wave, diffused
    theta
    • Experience “hypnic jerks” : brief muscle jerk that
    may happen along with falling sensation
    • Lasts 5 minutes
    • 5 % sleep time
    Awake stage (eye closed)
    Stage 1
    Stage 2
    • Phenomenological experience of falling asleep
    • Lasts 10-15 minutes
    • 50 % sleep time
    • Brain wave : sleep spindle (burst brain actvity,
    13-16 Hz) & K complex (high amplitude)
    Stage 2
    Stage 3&4 (NREM 3)
    • Deep sleep, slow-wave sleep
    • Brain wave : delta wave / slow wave (high
    amplitude, 0.5 – 4 Hz)
    • Difficult to wake, if someone awakened from
    NREM 3 (after 30”-1’) is extremely groggy and
    disoriented
    • Lasts 20-40 minutes
    • 20% sleep time
    • Likely to occur nightmares, sleep walking, sleep
    talking
    Stage 3&4
    REM
    • Disebut juga paradoxical sleep atau
    desynchronized sleep
    • Type of sleep in which brain is quite active
    • Not so restful sleep, vivid dreaming
    • Enter REM sleep about 90 minutes after falling
    sleep & going through all NREM stages.
    • Lasts 5-30 minutes
    • 25% sleep time
    Characteristic REM sleep
    • Rapid eye movement (associated with
    dreaming)
    • ↑HR, ↑BP, ↓body temperature, ↑RR
    • Muscle tone decreased (prevent people acting
    out their dreams)
    • Brain metabolism ↑ 20%
    • Brain wave : diffuse theta (similar to NREM 1)
