Sleep changes with aging

A little note aside, but I thought it might be interesting...

Aging is associated with well described changing in sleep patterns.

• Total sleep time decreases, elderly sleep less
• It takes longer before falling a sleep
• Elderly go to bed earlier and they awake earlier
• Their sleep architecture has changed, the slow wave sleep on EEG is reduced, REM sleep is reduced
• They’re easier aroused from sleep
• They sleep fragmented with many arousals
• Daytime napping

Also the prevalence of many sleep disorders increases with age e.g. Insomnia.
