.Expert Testifies About Impact Sleep Deprivation Had On Michael Jackson
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A Harvard sleep expert was on the stand all day in the Michael Jackson wrongful death trial, called by the Jackson family attorney to testify about the affect sleep deprivation had on the late superstar.
Dr. Charles Czeisler, who specializes in sleep study, told jurors in Los Angeles Superior Court the anesthetic propofol Conrad Murray administered to Jackson to help him sleep in the weeks prior to his death prevented the star’s brain from getting the rest it needed to allow him to perform.
Czeisler testified that unlike other drugs used in anesthesia, propofol will “dissipate the drive for sleep”.
He also listed a number of side-effects that could result from lack of sleep, including reduced levels of judgment and a disheveled physical appearance.
Jackson died on June 25, 2009 after he received a dose of propofol administered by Murray and stopped breathing.
He was preparing for his This Is It comeback concert series at the time.
Jackson family attorneys are trying to convince the jury that executives at concert promoting giant AEG Live were negligent in hiring and supervising Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in Jackson’s death.
Murray is currently serving a four-year sentence in a L.A. County jail for providing the fatal dose.

Esperto testimonia l'impatto che la privazione del sonno ha avuto su Michael Jackson
Un esperto del sonno di Harvard era sul banco tutto il giorno nel processo omicidio colposo di Michael Jackson, chiamato dal l'avvocato della famiglia Jackson a testimoniare riguardo gli effetti che la privazione del sonno hanno avuto sulla superstar.
Dr. Charles Czeisler, specializzato nello studio del sonno, ha detto ai giurati della Corte Suprema di Los Angeles che l'anestetico propofol Conrad Murray somministrato a Jackson per aiutarlo a dormire nelle settimane prima della sua morte ha impedito al cervello della star di ottenere il riposo necessario per consentirgli di esibirsi.
Czeisler ha testimoniato che a differenza di altri farmaci usati in anestesia, il propofol "dissipa l'impulso del sonno".
Ha anche elencato una serie di effetti collaterali che potrebbero derivare dalla mancanza di sonno, tra cui livelli ridotti di giudizio e un aspetto fisico trasandato..
