INSOMNIA (SLEEP DISORDER)

Groundbreaking Technologies for Life

What is Insomnia?

 

Insomnia is a common sleep disorder that makes it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep, or to wake up too early and not be able to go back to sleep. People with insomnia feel tired when they wake up. Insomnia can reduce not only energy level and mood, but also health, work performance and quality of life. 

It is the disease of not being able to sleep in sufficient time and restful sleep. During the existence of the disease, symptoms such as irregularity in sleeping hours, sudden night awakenings, difficulty falling asleep after waking up, and waking up very early in the morning are observed.

The existence of a regular sleep time and long naps does not mean that we will wake up the next day rested and ready to work. In studies on sleep and sleeping problems, it is said that an adult individual should sleep 7-8 hours every night. However, the resting process, which differs from person to person, can change the person's sleep duration.

Tinnitus and Vagus Nerve Stimulation

Tinnitus can also be defined as the patient's perception of a sound without an acoustic stimulus. This sound can have different tones, features and characters. The sound most often heard as ringing is sometimes described as humming, bells, wind or whistling, machinery noise, rustling, pulsing sounds. Tinnitus is considered as a symptom rather than a disease and is treated as such. It is the most common symptom of the auditory system. These complaints may be severe enough to cause mental problems or severely impair the quality of life, and in some people, tinnitus may come and go within a few minutes.

Clinical studies have shown that vagus nerve stimulation provides an increase in parasympathetic activity, calms the patient, reduces sleep disorders due to tinnitus, and decreases THI (Tinnitus Handicap Inventoy).
