生理学家研究表明,老年人的睡眠时间宜长不宜短,60岁以上的老人,每天须保证8小时以上的睡眠。但许多老年人常觉得“老来觉少”,入夜不能长睡,长此以往,会造成老年人神疲力乏。所以老年人不可轻视失眠症。 治疗老年人的失眠,固然可以服安眠药,但由于老年人主要脏器老化、生理功能减退,更容易损害脑细胞和肝、肾等,不是长久之计。 Physiologists have shown that the elderly should not be short enough to sleep time, the elderly over the age of 60, every day to ensure that more than 8 hours of sleep. However, many seniors often feel that they are “old-fashioned,” they can not sleep at night, and in the long run, they can cause fatigue for the elderly. Therefore, the elderly can not underestimate insomnia. Treatment of insomnia in the elderly, of course, can serve as sleeping pills, but due to the elderly aging organs, physiological function decline, more likely to damage brain cells and liver, kidney, etc., is not a long-term plan.
