 Not done: this is not the right page to request additional user rights. You may reopen this request with the specific changes to be made and someone will add them for you, or if you have an account, you can wait until you are autoconfirmed and edit the page yourself. ‑‑ElHef (Meep?) 17:25, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

Sleep Apnea

"Obstructive sleep apnea is a condition in which major pauses in breathing occur during sleep, disrupting the normal progression of sleep and often causing other more severe health problems. Apneas occur when the muscles around the patient's airway relax during sleep, causing the airway to collapse and block the intake of oxygen.[96]"

This isn't the 1970s, obstructive sleep apnea is not just pauses in breathing (despite the misleading name). ICSD-3 recognizes three respiratory disturbances in the diagnosis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Apneas (total cessation of breathing), Hypopneas (30-90% reduction in airflow, with either oxygen desaturation, cortical arousal, or both), and Respiratory Effort-Related Arousals (<30% drop in airflow associated with cortical arousal). Hypopneas and RERAs do not require drops in oxygen desaturation, and there are no pauses in breathing. The current language is misleading and should be changed to reflect the broad spectrum of sleep apnea, not just one extreme. Many people with sleep apnea exclusively have hypopneas or RERAs.

I think this article for the most part cover the basic of sleep. It could be useful to add more factors that can cause distribution in sleep. I also see someone has added a section to the talk page related to gender somewhat, I also think that uncovering those aspects would be useful in this article.

Nap section

I noticed that the section on naps is very short and is greatly lacking. The information is very limited and has not come from recent sources. Adding more information could greatly benefit readers. Alexa K Taylor (talk) 21:02, 29 September 2021 (UTC) Alexa Taylor

Sleep Disorders

I think this article would benefit some more information regarding sleep disorders especially since the lead contains more information about them then the actual sleep disorder section. I think the article could benefit with a parasomnia section including night terrors, enuresis, sleep talking, added to the somnambulism section. Saramouser (talk) 03:42, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
