It very much depends on what's wrong with you. I've been hospitalised multiple times. Most of the times were fine, but once was neurosurgery, and I'd be woken up at regular intervals throughout the night to answer "What's your name? Where are you? What year is it? How many fingers am I holding up?" At some point there must be a crossover between the risk of an undetected problem vs the risk inherent in lack of sleep. Not to mention "PAGING RESPOND MET CALL CODE BLUE"[0] followed by a crash cart tearing off down the hallway at 4am, and of course once you've been in the hospital for a few days you know that "MET call" means someone is probably dying and "code blue" means it's from cardiopulmonary arrest, which doesn't really help soothe you back to sleep.
