病室における睡眠時の対流式冷房に関する実験的研究

摘要

This study was designed to record some psychological and physiological responses to evaluate the effects of such responses by a convective air conditioning system in a hospital on the quality of sleep. Changes in skin temperature, degree of relaxation, movement in sleep and feeling of sleep were recorded. Results of skin temperature and autonomic nervous system showed sleep is composed 3 periods, 24:00~ 2:00,2:00~5:00 and 2:00~5:00. During first period of 24:00～2:00, 26℃ was found to be better than 28℃ and 30℃As for second and third periods of 2:00~7:00, 26"-28℃ is superior to 30℃ for sleep in a hospital.%人体が覚醒状態であるなら、暑く感じるときには木陰へ移動し、 寒く感じるときには重ね草するなど、行動性体温調節により各自で 各自が曝される温熱環境を微調整することができる。しかし、人体 が睡眠状態である場合、無意識な人体が十分な行動性体温調節を行 うことは難しい。
