Sommeil à ondes lentes. Alors que le sommeil paradoxal est caractérisé par plusieurs paramètres facilement quantifiables, le sommeil calme à ondes lentes est défini négativement, par de nombreux auteurs, comme non REM sleep, le sommeil qui n'est pas le sommeil paradoxal. Un seul critère le définit, la présence de fuseaux et d'ondes lentes cérébrales. 1, record 2, French, - sommeil%20%C3%A0%20ondes%20lentes
