While we have touched on sleep deprivation in other episodes, particularly as it relates to confusion with the concept of insomnia, in this episode, we devote the entire program to a discussion of the topic. In this episode we will:

• Define sleep deprivation
• Go through the symptoms of sleep deprivation and research into many of these signs
• Touch upon how we look for and measure sleep deprivation
• Contrast sleep deprivation with insomnia 
• List some common causes of sleep deprivation
• Discuss treatment options and relative validity of these interventions
