Abstract
⺠Wakefulness can last up to 24 h by the end on the first night of a 12 h night-shift. ⺠This causes impairments to critical decisions during unexpected, changing challenges. ⺠And the ability to engage in and keep abreast of protracted key negotiations. ⺠These effects are with 'supervisory executive functions' of the prefrontal cortex. ⺠Recent findings relevant to 24 h wakefulness are reviewed, with countermeasures.
