Stages of sleep in adults (EEG)
Wakefulness (W): relaxed stage of being awake (alpha waves)
(A) transition between wakefulness and sleep (often still ascribed to the stage of wakefulness)
(A) transition between wakefulness and sleep (often still ascribed to the stage of wakefulness)
(B) stage 1: falling asleep (lightest sleep with alpha and theta waves)
(C) stage 2: beginning of sleep (light sleep with sleep spindles, theta waves, and K-complexes)
(D) stage 3: transition between medium and deep sleep (delta waves)
(E) stage 4: deep sleep (over 50% of delta waves)
(C) stage 2: beginning of sleep (light sleep with sleep spindles, theta waves, and K-complexes)
(D) stage 3: transition between medium and deep sleep (delta waves)
(E) stage 4: deep sleep (over 50% of delta waves)
The last three patterns show the electroencephalogram (EEG), the electrooculogram (EOG; measures eye movement) and the electromyogram (EMG) of an index finger during REM sleep (dreaming sleep).
The REM stages typically occur at the end of the sleep cycle and are not associated with any of the above-mentioned stages (i.e. they form their own stage)
