Alpha activity and cardiac correlates: three types of relationships during nocturnal sleep

Objective: We examined simultaneously alpha activity and cardiac changes during nocturnal sleep, in order to differentiate non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, REM sleep, and intra-sleep awakening. Methods: Ten male subjects displaying occasionally spontaneous intra-sleep awakenings underwent EEG an...
