Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To determine the quality, quantity and distribution of sleep in healthy subjects in different environments. Sleep-related parameters (using EEG: Rechtschaffen & Kales (R&K) manual scoring) • Number of arousals (and awakenings) per hour • Total sleep time (any sleep stage other than awake, derived from EEG) • Sleep efficiency • Sleep continuity	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
To investigate the correlation between stressors present in the ICU environment and continuity of sleep, in healthy subjects. Percentage of arousals caused by sound • Correlation between sleep continuity and environmental parameters Environmental parameters: • Sound levels (decibel and amplitude of spectral components) • Reverberation time • Light levels (Lux) • Light frequencies • Temperature (degrees Celsius	—
