Sleep disruption is a research area that focuses on studying the various factors and mechanisms that can disrupt a person's normal sleep patterns. This can include interruptions to the sleep cycle, difficulty falling or staying asleep, and overall poor sleep quality. Researchers in this area aim to understand the underlying causes of sleep disruption, its impact on physical and mental health, and potential strategies for improving sleep quality and reducing disruptions. Common factors that can contribute to sleep disruption include stress, poor sleep hygiene, medical conditions, and environmental factors. Studies in this field often involve evaluating individuals' sleep patterns through objective measures such as sleep monitoring devices or self-reported data, as well as interventions to help improve sleep quality and reduce disruptions.
