Clinical Trial Summary

Sleepiness caused by sleep deprivation may increase the risk of injuries and damages during physical activity. Individual data so far indicates worsening of postural stability and control with females exhibiting better static postural stability regardless of sleeping conditions in comparison to men. However, the literature is deficient in terms of postural stability conditions with eyes open and eyes closed states, as well as fall risk and sensory integration of balance.
