Brief summary

Sleepiness caused by sleep deprivation may increase the risk of injuries and damages during physical activity. Individual data so far indicates worsening of postural stability and control with females exhibiting better static postural stability regardless of sleeping conditions in comparison to men. However, the literature is deficient in terms of postural stability conditions with eyes open and eyes closed states, as well as fall risk and sensory integration of balance.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Postural Stability Index	24 hours	Postural stability Index will be measured via Biodex Balance System. A lower score represents better postural stability.
Fall Risk Score	24 hours	Fall Risk Score will be measured via Biodex Balance System. A lower score represents better postural stability.
Clinical Test of Sensory Integration and Balance	24 hours	Clinical Test of Sensory Integration and Balance will be measured via Biodex Balance System. A lower score represents better postural stability.
