5 NEED TO KNOW #1 Sleep deprivation and circadian misalignment decrease cognitive and physical performance Not all sleep deprivation and circadian misalignment is created equal There exist several, side-effect free, countermeasures

6 Definitions/Background Circadian Daily Biological Rhythm Internal clock regulates an average circadian rhythm of 24.2 hrs a day Light serves as the strongest external stimulus for maintaining circadian alignment to Earth s 24-hour day/night cycle

7 Phase Shifting Definitions/Background Phase advance shortens circadian cycle (shift to an earlier time for sleep) Phase delay lengthens circadian cycle (shift to a later time for sleep) Circadian Misalignment Desynchronization that results when external cues oppose the internal clock (i.e., light during the night) Traveling across time zones & working overnight lead to circadian misalignment CBT min.

8 Definitions/Background Melatonin: biological darkness signal In the evening and during periods of darkness, melatonin is produced and released into the blood. When melatonin is high at night, alertness dips and the desire to sleep increases Daytime levels of melatonin are barely detectable Bright light inhibits the release of melatonin

10 The Sleep-Deprived Pilot

11 The Sleep-Deprived Pilot The macho pilot/astronaut/doctor approach and consequences "My mind clicks on and off... I try letting one eyelid close at a time while I prop the other open with my will. But the effort's too much. Sleep is winning. My whole body argues dully that nothing, nothing life can attain is quite so desirable as sleep. My mind is losing resolution and control.

44 Methods Subjects diagnosed with Major Depression w/ Seasonal Pattern by SCID criteria and SIGH-SAD scores of 20. Each light unit had an array of 267 LEDs, measured 20 x 24 cm, and were viewed at a distance of 50 cm. ACGIH Hazard Analysis was conducted to assure safety of the light units. Random assignment, double-blind, to 468 nm or 654 nm used daily (45 m, between 0600 and 0800) for 3 weeks.
