National Sleep Foundation's sleep quality recommendations: first report

Abstract: There is consensus among experts regarding some indicators of sleep quality among otherwise healthy individuals. Education and public health initiatives regarding good sleep quality will require sustained and collaborative efforts from multiple stakeholders. Future research should explore how sleep architecture and naps relate to sleep quality. Implications and limitations of the consensus recommendations are discussed.

“…Data regarding active and passive smoking habits, lifestyle habits, and sleep were collected. We considered 6 - 8 h of sleep per night as an optimal amount of sleep based on the recommendations of the National Sleep Foundation [10]. Physical activity was measured based on the World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations for healthy adults [11].…”

“…Sleep is essential for health and recovery. Good sleep quality has been defined by the National Sleep Foundation as sleeping at least 85% of the total time in bed, falling asleep in 30 min or less, a maximum of one perceived nocturnal awakening, and being awake for 20 min or less after initially falling asleep (Ohayon et al, ). Sleep deprivation may lead to health problems, such as decreased cognitive performance, memory deficits and depressive mood (Koren, Dumin, & Gozal, ; Morin & Jarrin, ; Porkka‐Heiskanen, Zitting, & Wigren, ).…”

“…Although we have published previous reports from the current research sample, these have not focused on the associations between sleep and PA (Falck, Landry, Brazendale, & Liu‐Ambrose, ; Landry, Best, et al, ), or in the one instance in which sleep and PA were examined jointly, the authors averaged sleep and PA data over the multiple days of measurement and did not examine day‐to‐day associations (Falck, Best, Davis, & Liu‐Ambrose, ). The current consensus is that sleep quality cannot be summarized by a single measure but instead consists of interrelated but distinct components, including sleep efficiency, awakenings and sleep latency (Ohayon et al, ). Moreover, overall sleep duration has been shown to be an important indicator of health in older adults (Hall et al, ).…”
