Measuring Sleepiness

Are we getting closer to measuring the true meaning of “sleepiness”? Our tools are becoming more sophisticated and more universal, but at times it is like the blind men and the elephant — everyone has a different view based on what they are measuring. This blog reviews an article by Mehra and colleagues that comes to the conclusion that there are at least two elephants and maybe more.
