Abstract

There is mounting evidence that night shift work significantly impacts on both circadian and homeostatic sleep processes in healthcare workers,1 resulting in dramatic sleep loss. Beyond the well-known consequences on physical and mental health,2 several studies described an impairment of cognitive function following night shift-related sleep deprivation (SD) in nurses.
