Understand that sleep is divided into different stages, primarily categorized as Non-Rapid Eye Movement (NREM) sleep and Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep.
Recall that NREM sleep is further divided into stages 1, 2, and 3, each characterized by distinct brain wave patterns observed through EEG recordings.
Identify that sleep spindles are brief bursts of rapid brain activity that appear as distinct wave patterns on an EEG and are important for memory consolidation and sensory processing during sleep.
