Mental and physical effects caused by caregivers' sleep deprivation have been observed. Biomarkers of stress, cognitive functions, immune system functions, and mental status, including burden, depression, and distress, were most frequently mentioned in caregivers with regards to sleep deprivation. As for PwD, mental health indicators like depression and behavioural change were related to sleep deprivation of caregivers. The relationship between caregivers and PwD, as well as the family's financial situation change were also identified.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusion</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Sleep deprivation in caregivers of PwD harms both parties, underscoring the need for adequate caregiver rest and interventions targeting sleep issues.
