Regulation of the Activity of Respiratory Muscles During Sleep

  • Chapter
The Regulation of Respiration During Sleep and Anesthesia

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 99))

Abstract

In recent years the study of sleep phenomenology both somatic and vegetative (autonomic) has brought into perspective a clearcut functional dichotomy between synchronized and desynchronized sleep stages. This dichotomy is revealed also by the study of the activity of respiratory muscles during the sleep cycle.
