Additional Factors That Affect Sleep Comfort

Fatores adicionais que afetam o conforto do sono

The type of mattress one uses is not the only factor for patients with pain and sleep difficulty. – O tipo de colchĂŁo utilizado nĂŁo Ă© o Ășnico fator para pacientes com dores e dificuldades para dormir.

Many other factors need to be considered that may affect sleep, including; – Muitos outros fatores que podem afetar o sono precisam ser considerados, incluindo;

- medication side effects; – efeitos colaterais de medicamentos;
- irregular sleep patterns; – padrĂ”es de sono irregulares;
- caffeine / alcoho l/ tobacco use; – uso de cafeĂ­na/ĂĄlcool/tabaco;
- sleep apnea; – apnĂ©ia do sono;
- anxiety  /stress. – ansiedade/estresse
            
If comfort is not the only thing making sleep difficult, it is advisable for the patient to consult his or her family physician to discuss other possible causes and treatments for sleeplessness. – Se o conforto nĂŁo Ă© a Ășnica coisa que dificulta o sono, Ă© aconselhĂĄvel que o paciente consulte o seu mĂ©dico de famĂ­lia para discutir outras possĂ­veis causas e tratamentos para a insĂŽnia.
            
If anyone experiences significant or persistent back pain, there may be an underlying back condition that has nothing to do with the mattress. – Se alguĂ©m sentir dores nas costas significativas ou persistentes, pode haver uma condição subjacente nas costas que nĂŁo tem nada a ver com o colchĂŁo.

It is always advisable for people with back pain to consult with a health care provider for a thorough exam, diagnosis, and treatment program. – Ă‰ sempre aconselhĂĄvel que as pessoas com dores nas costas consultem um mĂ©dico para um exame completo, diagnĂłstico e programa de tratamento.

Hard Lesson in Sleep for Teenagers

Lição difícil sobre sono para adolescentes

Few Americans these days get the hours of sleep optimal for their age, but experts agree that teenagers are more likely to fall short than anyone else. – Poucos americanos hoje em dia conseguem dormir as horas ideais para a sua idade, mas os especialistas concordam que os adolescentes tĂȘm maior probabilidade de dormir aquĂ©m do que qualquer outra pessoa.
          
Researchers report that the average adolescent needs eight and a half to nine and a half hours of sleep each night. – Os pesquisadores relatam que o adolescente mĂ©dio precisa de oito horas e meia a nove horas e meia de sono todas as noites.

However, in a poll taken in 2006 by the National Sleep Foundation, less than 20 percent reported getting that much rest on school nights. – No entanto, numa sondagem realizada em 2006 pela Fundação Nacional do Sono, menos de 20 por cento relataram descansar tanto nas noites escolares.

With the profusion of personal electronics, the current percentage is believed to be even worse. – Com a profusĂŁo de eletrĂŽnicos pessoais, acredita-se que o percentual atual seja ainda pior.

A study in Fairfax, Va., found that only 6 percent of children in the 10th grade and only 3 percent in the 12th grade get the recommended amount of sleep. – Um estudo realizado em Fairfax, VirgĂ­nia, descobriu que apenas 6% das crianças do 10Âș ano e apenas 3% do 12Âș ano dormem a quantidade recomendada.

Two in three teens were found to be severely sleep-deprived, losing two or more hours of sleep every night. – Descobriu-se que dois em cada trĂȘs adolescentes sofrem de grave privação de sono, perdendo duas ou mais horas de sono todas as noites.

The causes can be biological, behavioral or environmental. – As causas podem ser biolĂłgicas, comportamentais ou ambientais.

The effect on the well-being of adolescents — on their health and academic potential — can be profound. – O efeito no bem-estar dos adolescentes — na sua saĂșde e no seu potencial acadĂ©mico — pode ser profundo.
          
Insufficient sleep in adolescence increases the risks of high blood pressure and heart disease, – O sono insuficiente na adolescĂȘncia aumenta os riscos de hipertensĂŁo e doenças cardĂ­acas,

Type 2 diabetes and obesity, said Dr. Owens, pediatric sleep specialist at Children's National Health System in Washington. Sleeplessness is also linked to risk-taking behavior, depression, suicidal ideation and car accidents. – Diabetes tipo 2 e obesidade, disse o Dr. Owens, especialista em sono pediĂĄtrico do Sistema Nacional de SaĂșde Infantil em Washington. A insĂŽnia tambĂ©m estĂĄ ligada a comportamentos de risco, depressĂŁo, ideação suicida e acidentes de carro.

Insufficient sleep also impairs judgment, decision-making skills and the ability to curb impulses, which are "in a critical stage of development in adolescence," Dr. Owens said. – O sono insuficiente tambĂ©m prejudica o julgamento, as habilidades de tomada de decisĂŁo e a capacidade de conter impulsos, que estĂŁo “em um estĂĄgio crĂ­tico de desenvolvimento na adolescĂȘncia”, disse o Dr. Owens.

With the current intense concern about raising academic achievement, it is worth noting that a study by Kyla Wahlstrom of 9,000 students in eight Minnesota public high schools showed that starting school a half-hour later resulted in an hour's more sleep a night and an increase in the students' grade point averages and standardized test scores. – Com a atual intensa preocupação em aumentar o desempenho acadĂȘmico, vale a pena notar que um estudo realizado por Kyla Wahlstrom com 9.000 alunos em oito escolas pĂșblicas de ensino mĂ©dio de Minnesota mostrou que começar a escola meia hora depois resultou em uma hora a mais de sono por noite e em um aumento na as mĂ©dias de notas dos alunos e as pontuaçÔes dos testes padronizados.
          
When children reach puberty, a shift in circadian rhythm makes it harder for them to fall asleep early enough to get the requisite number of hours and still make it to school on time. – Quando as crianças atingem a puberdade, uma mudança no ritmo circadiano torna mais difĂ­cil para elas adormecerem cedo o suficiente para terem o nĂșmero necessĂĄrio de horas e ainda chegarem Ă  escola a tempo.

A teenager’s sleep-wake cycle can shift as much as two hours, making it difficult to fall asleep before 11 p.m. – O ciclo sono-vigĂ­lia de um adolescente pode mudar atĂ© duas horas, tornando difĂ­cil adormecer antes das 23h.

If school starts at 8 or 8:30, it is not possible to get enough sleep. – Se as aulas começarem Ă s 8h ou 8h30, nĂŁo Ă© possĂ­vel dormir o suficiente. 

Based on biological sleep needs, a teenager who goes to sleep at 11 p.m, should be getting up around 8 a.m. – Com base nas necessidades biolĂłgicas de sono, um adolescente que vai dormir Ă s 23h deve acordar por volta das 8h
          
Adding to the adolescent shift in circadian rhythm are myriad electronic distractions that cut further into sleep time, like smartphones, iPods, computers and televisions. – Somando-se Ă  mudança do ritmo circadiano dos adolescentes estĂŁo inĂșmeras distraçÔes eletrĂŽnicas que reduzem ainda mais o tempo de sono, como smartphones, iPods, computadores e televisĂ”es.

A stream of text messages, tweets, and postings on Facebook and Instagram keep many awake long into the night. – Um fluxo de mensagens de texto, tweets e postagens no Facebook e Instagram mantĂ©m muitos acordados atĂ© altas horas da noite.

Parents should consider instituting an electronic curfew and perhaps even forbid sleep-distracting devices in the bedroom, Dr. Owens said. – Os pais deveriam considerar a instituição de um toque de recolher eletrĂŽnico e talvez atĂ© proibir dispositivos que distraem o sono no quarto, disse Owens.

Beyond the bedroom, many teenagers lead overscheduled lives that can lead to short nights. – AlĂ©m do quarto, muitos adolescentes levam vidas sobrecarregadas que podem resultar em noites curtas.
        
Also at risk are many teenagers from low-income and minority families, where overcrowding, excessive noise and safety concerns can make it difficult to get enough restful sleep, the academy statement said. – TambĂ©m correm risco muitos adolescentes de famĂ­lias de baixa renda e de minorias, onde a superlotação, o ruĂ­do excessivo e as preocupaçÔes com a segurança podem dificultar um sono reparador suficiente, disse o comunicado da academia.

Trying to compensate for sleep deprivation on weekends can further compromise an adolescent's sleep-wake cycle by inducing permanent jet lag. – Tentar compensar a privação de sono nos fins de semana pode comprometer ainda mais o ciclo sono-vigĂ­lia do adolescente, induzindo o jet lag permanente.

Sleeping late on weekends shifts their internal clock, making it even harder to get to sleep Sunday night and wake up on time for school Monday morning. – Dormir atĂ© tarde nos fins de semana altera o relĂłgio interno, tornando ainda mais difĂ­cil dormir no domingo Ă  noite e acordar na hora para a escola na segunda de manhĂŁ.
