Zusammenfassung

Etwa 1/2 seines Lebens verbringt der Mensch schlafend. Ausreichende Schlafmenge und -qualität sind wesentlich für Wohlbefinden und Leistungsfähigkeit im täglichen Leben (Peter 1991). Schlafstörungen führen zu unspezifischen Symptomen, die sich als Schlaflosigkeit, Tagesmüdigkeit, Verstimmungszustände, Konzentrations- oder Aufmerksamkeitsstörungen zeigen und die Lebensqualität der Betroffenen und ihrer Angehörigen beeinträchtigen können (Hajak u. Rüther 1995).
