Trait Interindividual Differences in the Magnitude of Subjective Sleepiness from Sleep Inertia [PDF]
Clocks & Sleep, 2021 In shift work settings and on-call operations, workers may be at risk of sleep inertia when called to action immediately after awakening from sleep. However, individuals may differ substantially in their susceptibility to sleep inertia.

The Inert Brain: Explaining Neural Inertia as Post-anaesthetic Sleep Inertia [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 “Neural inertia” is the brain’s tendency to resist changes in its arousal state: it is manifested as emergence from anaesthesia occurring at lower drug doses than those required for anaesthetic induction, a phenomenon observed across very different ...

Evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive stimulation and physiological dynamization on sleep inertia [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyIntroductionSleep inertia, characterized by impaired cognitive and psychomotor performance post-waking, poses a significant safety concern in operational settings, particularly when exacerbated by prior sleep loss.

A novel bedtime pulsatile-release caffeine formula ameliorates sleep inertia symptoms immediately upon awakening [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Sleep inertia is a disabling state of grogginess and impaired vigilance immediately upon awakening. The adenosine receptor antagonist, caffeine, is widely used to reduce sleep inertia symptoms, yet the initial, most severe impairments are hardly ...

Morning sleep inertia and its associated factors: Findings from a nationwide study. [PDF]
PLoS ONEObjectivesSleep inertia, a transitional state of grogginess and impaired alertness upon awakening, varies in duration and influencing factors. This study examined its characteristics and associations with sociodemographic factors, sleep patterns, and ...

Exercising Caution Upon Waking–Can Exercise Reduce Sleep Inertia? [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Sleep inertia, the transitional state of reduced alertness and impaired cognitive performance upon waking, is a safety risk for on-call personnel who can be required to perform critical tasks soon after waking.

Effects of using a snooze alarm on sleep inertia after morning awakening [PDF]
Journal of Physiological Anthropology, 2022 Background Many people use the snooze function of digital alarm clocks for morning awakening, but the effects of a snooze alarm on waking are unclear. We examined the effects of a snooze alarm on sleep inertia, which is a transitional state characterized

Alarm tones, music and their elements: Analysis of reported waking sounds to counteract sleep inertia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 Sleep inertia is a potentially dangerous reduction in human alertness and occurs 0-4 hours after waking. The type of sound people set as their alarm for waking has been shown to reduce the effects of sleep inertia, however, the elemental musical factors ...

Time Course of Motor Sleep Inertia Dissipation According to Age [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2022 Sleep inertia (SI) refers to a complex psychophysiological phenomenon observed after morning awakening that can be described as the gradual recovery of waking-like status after a night of sleep.
