AGING, HYPNOTICS, SLEEP INERTIA AND THE RISK OF FALLING

这个子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和调查员(PI)可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可能会出现在其他CRISE条目中。列出的机构是针对中心的，而不一定是针对调查员的机构。我们预计，从睡眠中醒来和服用安眠药可能会损害平衡能力，并使老年人面临更大的跌倒风险。如果我们的预期得到证实，我们希望利用这项研究的结果来教育老年人与从睡眠中醒来和使用安眠药相关的认知和身体障碍。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. We expect that awakening from sleep and use of sleeping pills may impair balance performance and put older adults at greater risk of falls. If our expectations are confirmed, we hope to use the results of this study to educate older adults on the cognitive and physical impairments associated with awakening from sleep and the use of sleeping pills.
