Development of a preclinical model of ICU-associated sleep fragmentation and effects on pneumonia recovery in mice
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The study of sleep and its interaction with critical illness has been limited partly due to a paucity of representative models. We developed an ICU-associated sleep fragmentation model that recapitulates many of the key features of sleep experienced by patients in the intensive care unit. Furthermore, we observed delayed recovery in lung injury in an S. pneumoniae murine model when exposed to ICU sleep fragmentation.
