2 Fig. 1 Three hypnograms from the same patient can be observed. T0: hypnogram of the presurgical night. It is characterized by frequent awakenings, a short total sleep time and a low percentage of REM sleep. T1: hypnogram of the night obtained 1 year after surgery. When compared to the figure on top a longer duration of sleep and of REM sleep can be observed. T2: hypnogram from the night obtained at the second year of follow up. Sleep appears more organized with a longer duration, fewer awakenings and more REM sleep.
