The Sleep-EVAL
Research is a scientific program which was launched in 1990
Based on the
scarcity of data on Sleep Disorders in the general population, several
objectives were set:
Through surveys of the General Population:
To document sleep habits and sleep patterns of
the general population
To describe the sleep disorders of the general
population in terms of prevalence, co-morbidity
To identify the risk factors of sleep disorders,
their association with psychiatric and organic diseases
To investigate how sleep disorders are
identified and treated
To evaluate the Public Health consequences of sleep disorders.
Through clinical studies:
To improve the identification criteria of sleep disorders
To
improve the evaluation and the diagnosis of sleep disorders
To
improve the evaluation of treatment.
To fulfill these objectives, a new investigation tool was
created.
This tool was named Sleep-EVAL.
It is an expert system, specialized in
the field of Sleep Medicine and Psychiatry, able to make diagnoses.
Its
knowledge of the main organic diseases and pharmacological drugs provides a
multitude of information on the way individuals are identified and treated.
Consequently,
it was allowing the identification of the Public Health needs of the
general population.
