English term or phrase: in the evening while asleep

The XXX system will be sold under prescription from a physician in the European Union (EU). It is composed of an external pulse generator and disposable electric patches placed on the forehead that are replaced daily. The patches can be worn primarily ***in the evening while asleep***. In clinical studies, XXX was well tolerated and has been shown to substantially reduce seizures in patients with epilepsy and improve mood in patients with depression.

Does this mean "a nap in the evening", or "the sleeping time which begins in the evening and continues all night through"?
