SLEEP-ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH?
I read an article on this subject recently and thought it was a very good one to include in the Blog. As an obstetrician for 30 years, I am very accustomed to the subject of lack of sleep. During my earlier years in practice, I was very resilient to lack of sleep. I could get four hours of sleep at night and get through the next day without too much difficulty. Not anymore! I believe one should try to get 6-8 hours of sleep per night. I was not surprised with the findings in this article from Harvard Medical School and have provided a link to the article on sleep. It's worth reading. I, personally, can add another problem with chronic sleep deprivation. I believe it contributes to professional burnout. Doc
