Handbook of Sleep Medicine
Alon Y. Avidan , Phyllis C. Zee
editore: Lippincott Williams and Wilkins
pagine: 490
Expanded to include detailed information on pharmacologic and non- pharmacologic treatment, this handbook continues to offer a concise overview of the field for trainees and practitioners in the many disciplines that deal with sleep disorders. Chapters provide a broad introduction to sleep disturbances and associated comorbidities and discuss the major sleep disorders in terms of epidemiology, diagnostic criteria, differential diagnosis, assessment tools, management, and follow-up.

Sleepiness
Causes, Consequences and Treatment
Michael J. Thorpy , Michel Billiard
editore: Cambridge
pagine: 494
Written and edited by leading clinicians and researchers in sleep medicine, this is the first book to focus on the causes, consequences and treatment of disorders of excessive sleepiness. Extensive coverage is provided for all known causes of sleepiness, including sleep deprivation, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, narcolepsy and other hypersomnias of central origin, shift work, and medical and psychiatric disorders. Since many causes of sleepiness are difficult to differentiate from each other, and treatment modalities can vary greatly from one disorder to another, this book helps the clinician to formulate a differential diagnosis that will ultimately lead to the correct diagnosis. Epidemiology, evaluation of the sleepy patient, diagnostic investigations including neuroimaging, subjective and objective testing, cognitive effects of sleepiness, motor vehicle driving issues, medico-legal aspects of sleepiness, and therapy are also discussed in detail. This is an essential resource for neurologists, psychiatrists and sleep specialists.

Sleep Disorders in Neurology
Paul Reading , Sebastiaan Overeem
editore: Wiley-Blackwell (an imprint of John Wiley & Sons Ltd)
pagine: 344
Formulate treatment plans with confidence when you consult Sleep Disorders in Neurology, a helpful overview of both common and rare neurological disorders that are frequently accompanied by significant sleep disturbances. This concise guide explains when to consult a sleep specialist in managing a particular sleep disorder and draws on the expertise of neurologists who specialize in the disorders under discussion. This practical guide is fully illustrated and easily digested, providing a counterpoint to large encyclopedic reference volumes. The authors take you from history taking and diagnostic testing, to pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment options, and are joined by disease sub-specialists in the chapters on disease specific sleep disturbances and the effects of common neurological medications on sleep. This book is essential for sleep medicine specialists, as well as for clinicians and health care professionals not specifically trained in sleep medicine, but who nevertheless need to manage neurologically damaged patients with increasingly recognized sleep-wake disturbances.

Curare l'insonnia senza farmaci. Metodi di valutazione e intervento cognitivo-comportamentale
Alessandra Devoto , Cristiano Violani
editore: Carocci
pagine: 238
L'insonnia è un disturbo molto diffuso, causato da molteplici fattori e spesso associato a disagi fisici e mentali. I medici di famiglia, ai quali in genere si rivolgono i soggetti che ne soffrono, privilegiano valutazioni anamnestiche rapide e trattamenti farmacologici, spesso non risolutivi del disturbo. Una valida alternativa è rappresentata dai trattamenti basati sulle attuali conoscenze dei processi psicobiologici di regolazione del sonno. Si tratta di interventi brevi, focalizzati sul sonno, facilmente integrabili con tecniche di conclamata efficacia di tipo cognitivo-comportamentale. Tale approccio, qui descritto, rappresenta una strategia molto efficace sia come trattamento centrato sul disturbo del sonno, sia come trattamento combinabile con altre farmacoterapie e psicoterapie. Il volume si propone come strumento agile e pragmatico per psicologi e/o professionisti del campo sanitario, ma anche per specializzandi in psicoterapia e studenti dei corsi di laurea specialistici in Psicologia e in Scienze della salute.

pagine: 104
Il volume raccoglie gli atti del Convegno "I disturbi del sonno e la prevenzione dei danni da lavoro e degli infortuni in itinere", svoltosi nel novembre 2007 a Pisa, che ha rappresentato un'occasione per discutere e confrontarsi sull'importanza del sonno e delle sue patologie nell'ambito della medicina del lavoro. Vista l'estrema frequenza della riduzione e delle alterazioni del sonno da un lato e dall'altro del lavoro turnista, l'effetto negativo sulle performance lavorative e le conseguenze personali e sociali non possono essere sottovalutate ed anzi sono tali da diventare un problema di salute pubblica. La collaborazione tra medici del lavoro ed esperti in medicina del sonno è necessaria per ottenere una migliore opera di prevenzione, con importanti ricadute sociali ed economiche. Il volume vuole quindi costituire un ausilio sia per la valutazione diretta dei disturbi del sonno in ambito lavorativo e professionale sia nel percorso informativo e formativo di personale sanitario, aziende e lavoratori nella ricerca del migliore equilibrio possibile tra le necessità biologiche del ritmo sonno-veglia e le esigenze produttive ed i turni di lavoro distribuiti nelle 24 ore.
Il sonno e i suoi disturbi
Elio Lugaresi
editore: Il Mulino
pagine: 132
Fenomeno affascinante e ancora in parte misterioso senza il quale sarebbe impossibile vivere, il sonno regola la qualità della nostra vita, il nostro umore, la nostra efficienza durante la giornata. Dormire male è causa di diversi malesseri e disturbi e l'insonnia può essere la spia di altre patologie. Lugaresi, esperto internazionale della medicina del sonno, sintetizza in questo piccolo libro uno dei capitoli più importanti della medicina. Dopo una breve storia della ricerca sul sonno dall'antichità alle basilari scoperte del ventesimo secolo, ci spiega cosa avviene nel nostro cervello mentre dormiamo, ci parla delle insonnie e dei molti altri disturbi legati al sonno, indicando anche le terapie e i possibili rimedi.
Il libro del sonno. Viaggio nella metà buia della nostra vita
Peter Spork
editore: Longanesi
pagine: 313
Un saggio che tratta con competenza uno dei grandi misteri della vita di tutti gli esseri viventi: il sonno. L'argomento è affrontato a 360 gradi, con un occhio particolarmente attento ai risultati più aggiornati della ricerca scientifica in materia, all'impatto sociale di una trasformazione delle abitudini di vita che snaturano il sonno e ai disturbi che troppo spesso vi sono assodati. Il libro è diviso in tre parti, la prima delle quali è interamente dedicata al mistero del sonno, con una preziosa carrellata sui momenti fondamentali della storia della ricerca medica nel settore. Si scopre così, tra l'altro, che anche gli insetti dormono, ma con cicli brevissimi di qualche minuto. La seconda parte tratta della necessità del sonno (sapevate che una lunga privazione può causare danni permanenti al cervello?), e fornisce anche un decalogo di comportamenti corretti per poter scivolare dolcemente nel mondo dei sogni.
