Abstract

Human beings sleep for about a third of their lives and sleep is not a simply quiescent state of being but many biological and cognitive functions are subserved by its complex structure. Sleep disorders include a large number of different conditions which impact not only sleep and its homeostatic pattern, but also on mood, cognition, and personality trait. In this chapter, we follow the International Classification of Sleep Disorders to provide a brief but complete overview of Sleep Medicine. An adequate management of sleep disorders is important for the public health and can also improve prognosis, therapeutic response and survival of many patients, with reduced healthcare costs.
