Sleep issues are common among people with dementia, often manifesting as insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, and REM behavior disorder, leading to fragmented sleep and daytime sleepiness. Poor sleep can exacerbate cognitive decline, as the brain clears out waste products, including amyloid plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease, during sleep. Lack of sleep hinders this process, potentially accelerating dementia progression. Additionally, individuals with dementia may experience "sundowning," where they become more confused, agitated, and restless in the late afternoon and evening, further disrupting sleep patterns. Managing sleep problems involves establishing a regular sleep routine, limiting daytime naps, creating a calm bedtime environment, engaging in physical activity during the day, and addressing other health conditions like depression or sleep apnea.
