Sleep Debt Consequence Mapping

Meaning

Sleep Debt Consequence Mapping is a clinical and analytical process of identifying and quantifying the specific physiological, metabolic, and cognitive impairments resulting from chronic sleep restriction or sleep debt. This mapping involves correlating measurable decrements in performance, hormonal dysregulation, immune function markers, and metabolic parameters with the cumulative deficit in required sleep duration. The process is essential for demonstrating the tangible, systemic health risks associated with insufficient sleep, guiding personalized recovery protocols, and establishing the clinical burden of sleep loss.
