Abstract

Objectives

The purposes of this study were to identify age-related changes in objectively recorded sleep patterns across the human life span in healthy individuals and to clarify whether sleep latency and percentages of stage 1, stage 2, and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep significantly change with age.

Design

Review of literature of articles published between 1960 and 2003 in peer-reviewed journals and meta-analysis.
