English translation:Sleep disturbances / deprivation
Explanation:
Early in my nursing career, I rotated shifts—from days to evenings and then to a 2-week schedule of nights. One of my most eye-opening experiences (literally) came one night when I awoke to find myself standing with my forehead planted squarely on the medication closet door. I’d been asleep for only a few minutes, but it scared me witless.


Dozing on the job is one of the major downsides of working the night shift. Studies examining the effects of night-shift work have concluded that many nurses and other night-shift workers suffer sleep deprivation or sleep disturbances. - https://www.americannursetoday.com/survivng-the-night-shift/

Sleep disturbances encompass disorders of initiating and maintaining sleep (DIMS, insomnias), disorders of excessive somnolence (DOES), disorders of sleep–wake schedule, and dysfunctions associated with sleep, sleep stages, or partial arousals (parasomnias). - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK401/-
