Waking patients at a set time during polysomnography can limit sleep and lower the average sleep latency in the Multiple Sleep Latency Test. Patients assessed for hypersomnolence should be allowed to sleep freely during the PSG the night before their MSLT. bit.ly/3AZGrnc

People with narcolepsy struggle to stay awake during the day, even after a full night of sleep. People with untreated narcolepsy often report falling asleep anywhere, sometimes even while they’re working or speaking to people! bit.ly/32zJm1M

Can @NespressoAU help our frontline nurses in Melbourne keeping surgeries running throughout #COVID19Vic with an accessible coffee supply? Bit sad they have to crowd fund their own! @TripleMMelb would love your support to get behind. – at Melbourne, Victoria

@NespressoAU nurses at The Alfred Hospital in Melb are fundraising for a coffee machine - they don’t have time to change surgical scrubs, run downstairs, buy coffee and change again on their break. Bit sad! Could you puhlease help these legends out? (Alfred Centre, lvl 2) 🙏

Does anyone else find it a little ironic that they are at #SLEEP2018 learning about the importance of #sleep amount and timing, yet feeling very #sleepdeprived and out of #circadian alignment?
