An examination of aspects of sleep physiology and the physiology and selected pathophysiology of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal systems in humans. In many textbooks, these systems are treated in relative isolation, but in the functioning body, their activities are integrated and interdependent. For example, blood pressure is effectively regulated by both the cardiovascular system and the kidneys, similarly pH is regulated by the lungs and the kidneys and sleep will affect respiration and vice versa. In this module we will consider these individual systems from an integrated view point. This will also be reflected in the approach to the description of relevant pathological conditions.
