• How much sleep does your child need?.
• You know your child needs less sleep now than he did when he was a baby, but how much less is still enough? Every child is different — some need more sleep and some less — but here are general guidelines for how many hours of sleep a child needs on average each day.
• Nighttime sleep.
• Daytime sleep.
• Average total sleep.
• * Note: The two sets of numbers don't always add up because children who take longer naps tend to sleep fewer hours at night, and vice versa.
• Keep in mind that most kids need a lot of sleep — usually more than parents allow for. Often, says ParentCenter sleep expert Jodi Mindell, author of Sleeping Through the Night, if a child has poor sleep habits or refuses to nap or go to bed before 10 at night, his parents will assume that he just doesn't need much sleep. That's probably not the case — in fact, it's likely that such a child is actually sleep-deprived, hence his hyper, overtired behavior at bedtime. ...
• If you answered yes to any of these questions, your child may be getting less sleep than his body craves. To change this pattern, you'll need to help him develop good sleep habits, and set an appropriate bedtime and then stick to it. A preschooler or young grade-schooler who's outgrown napping needs a solid 11 to 12 hours of sleep a night, and that amount will gradually decrease as he gets older. ...

• How much sleep do we need?.
• People can become very distressed when they feel they are not getting a good nights sleep, which can make it harder to get off to sleep. But what is a normal amount of sleep? How much sleep do we need? The answer is that people vary greatly in their need for sleep. There is a popular idea that we all need 7 to 8 hours sleep every night. ... Also the amount of sleep a person needs varies throughout their life. ... As children grow older they require less sleep, possibly 11 hours around the age of 5 years and maybe 8-9 hours as a teenager. By the time someone reaches their 30's they may require less than 8 hours, and as time progresses this becomes less and less. Many people in their 70's require less than 6 hours sleep. Not only does the need for sleep vary from person to person, and with age, it also varies depending on level of activity. If someone has retired from work, they may be less active and therefore require less sleep. On the other hand if they have a young family and are constantly on the go, then they may require quite a bit of sleep.

• Research suggests that sleep requirements and patterns are idiosyncratic, with wide variation across populations. In order to design interventions that will effectively decrease or prevent these events, it is important to understand the signs, prevalence, and impact of sleep deprivation and problem sleepiness.
• Sleep Deprivation.
• Individuals differ in their optimal sleep requirements. Most sleep experts agree that adults typically need between 6 and 10 hours of sleep per 24-hour period, with most people requiring approximately 8 hours of sleep per day. 8,9 When adults get less than 5 hours of sleep over a 24-hour period, peak mental abilities begin to decline. 2 For short periods of time (2-3 days), adult who get 4 hours of sleep can function reasonably well, but below peak levels. 2 However, even with sleep deprivation of just a couple of days, slower response times and decreased initiatives are observed. 10 After one night of missed sleep, cognitive performance may decrease 25% from baseline. 11,12 After the second night of missed sleep, cognitive performance can fall to nearly 40% of baseline. ...
• With ongoing sleep deprivation (getting 2 to 3 hours less sleep than optimal), people develop a sleep debt. 2 If the sleep debt continues over 5 to 10 days, they are rarely maximally alert and at some point general performance, and particularly cognitive performance, become verifiably worse. Sleep debt also leads to slower response times, altered mood and motivation, and reduced morale and initiative. A meta-analysis of the effect of sleep deprivation on performance by Pilcher et al found that humans who are chronically sleep deprived function at the 9th percentile of non-sleep-deprived subjects. Further, sleep deprivation affected mood more than it did cognitive function; both were more affected than motor function. ...

Given data on the long-term complications of sleep apnea, it is important for patients to treat the problem as they would any chronic disease. Simply trying to treat snoring will not treat sleep apnea. Because of its association with heart problems and stroke, sleep apnea that does not respond to lifestyle measures should be treated by a physician, ideally a sleep disorders specialist.
