Increased slow wave sleep in a hypopituitary dwarf.

W P Tormey, A S Darragh.   

Abstract

The main features of the nocturnal EEG of a dwarf with evidence of hypothalamic disease were an increase in slow wave sleep (SWS), a reduction in stage 2 and no alteration in total rapid eye movement. Administration of growth hormone caused a further increase in SWS time.
