Área de la Ciencia:
- Salud en el trabajo
- Medicina del sueño
- Ciencias de la intervención
Sus antecedentes:
- El trabajo por turnos plantea riesgos para el bienestar, la seguridad y la productividad de los empleados.
- Las intervenciones existentes a menudo no abordan los desafíos únicos del trabajo por turnos.
- La gestión proactiva del sueño es crucial para mitigar los resultados negativos para la salud de los trabajadores por turnos.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para describir el proceso de desarrollo conjunto del programa SleepShifters.
- Para delinear el protocolo para la intervención de los Cambiadores de Sueño.
- Proporcionar un marco para la gestión de los problemas de sueño en los trabajadores por turnos.
Principales métodos:
- Desarrollo conjunto en el marco del Consejo de Investigación Médica.
- Proceso iterativo en cuatro etapas que incluye grupos focales y entrevistas con las partes interesadas.
- Asociación con cuatro organizaciones del Reino Unido para garantizar su aplicabilidad práctica.
Principales resultados:
- Desarrolló SleepShifters, un programa integral de gestión del sueño.
- El programa incluye un manual, eventos anuales, módulos digitales, campañas de sensibilización, un sitio web con CBT-I y una aplicación de programación.
- Intervención diseñada para su aplicación temprana en el empleo.
Conclusiones:
- SleepShifters ofrece un enfoque estructurado y coproducido para la gestión del sueño de los trabajadores por turnos.
- El programa tiene como objetivo prevenir los problemas de sueño y sus consecuencias.
- Investigaciones adicionales evaluarán la efectividad de SleepShifters en entornos organizativos.

01:19Management of Insomnia
320
The sleep cycle, an integral part of human health, consists of several stages with distinct characteristics and functions. It begins with a transition from wakefulness to sleep, known as the light sleep phase, followed by the restorative deep sleep phase, essential for physical recovery and growth. The cycle concludes with the Rapid Eye Movement (REM) phase, characterized by high brain activity and vivid dreaming. Insomnia, a prevalent sleep disorder, involves difficulty falling asleep, staying...

01:24Substance Use Disorders Affecting Sleep
216
Substance use disorders involve a pattern of using drugs more extensively than intended and continuing use despite harmful consequences. This includes legal substances like alcohol and nicotine, as well as illegal drugs. These disorders often involve both physical and psychological dependence, reflecting compulsive use of substances that significantly alter thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, contributing to a major public health issue.

01:13Insufficient Sleep and Sleep Deprivation
210
Insufficient sleep refers to not getting the recommended amount of sleep for optimal functioning, even if it's just slightly less than needed. Sleep insufficiency may occur due to lifestyle choices, such as staying up late for social events or work, resulting in routinely getting less sleep than required. For example, consistently sleeping 6 hours when the body needs 7-9 hours can lead to cumulative effects on health and well-being.

Insomnia is a prevalent sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, frequent awakenings during the night, and waking up too early without being able to return to sleep. People with insomnia often experience these disruptions at least three nights a week for at least one month. Chronic insomnia, which lasts for at least three months, can lead to increased anxiety, which in turn can worsen sleep difficulties, creating a cycle of sleeplessness and stress.

01:11Understanding Sleep
502
Sleep, an essential biological state, involves significant reductions in physical activity, sensory awareness, and interaction with the environment. This complex physiological process is primarily regulated by specific brain regions, notably the hypothalamus and pons, which govern the sleep-wake cycle or circadian rhythm.
The circadian rhythm, a nearly 24-hour cycle, is deeply influenced by environmental light cues. Light exposure directly affects the hypothalamus, which in turn regulates...

01:21Sleep Apnea
220
Sleep apnea is a condition where breathing stops intermittently during sleep, often leading to significant health issues. Each episode can last from 10 to 20 seconds or more and is frequently accompanied by a brief arousal from sleep. This disturbance, largely unnoticed by the individual, can lead to severe daytime fatigue. Commonly, individuals seek help after being informed by their partners about loud snoring and noticeable breathing pauses during sleep.
