sleep/wake disorders Flashcards
clinical presentation of insomnia disorder
difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or early morning awakening with inability to return to sleep sufficient enough to impair function
clinical presentation of hypersomnolence disorder
excessive sleeping/sleepiness not d/t disrupted circadian rhythm problems
clinical presentation of narcolepsy
overwhelming desire to fall asleep (may do so spontaneously) when inappropriate. May experience cataplexy
definition of cataplexy
sudden loss of muscle tone while conscious ranging from transient weakness to complete paralysis that is often precipitated by laughter or strong emotions
what is psychophysiologic insomnia
conditioned to remain awake when thinking of sleeping
what is idiopathic insomnia
lifelong difficulty obtaining adequate sleep
what is paradoxical insomnia
person thinks they are awake and having insomnia but EEG shows healthy sleep
definition of klein-levin syndrome
recurrent periods of prolonged sleep with intermittent periods of healthy sleep and alert waking
classic presentation of klein-levin syndrome
18-20 hour sleep period with waking time characterized by voracious eating, hypersexuality, and disinhibition
what deficit is highly associated with narcolepsy
hypocretin
what are the types of central sleep apnea
idiopathic
cheyne-stokes breathing
comorbid with opioids
high altitude periodic breathing
d/t medical disorder
d/t substance
primary sleep apnea of infancy
types of circadian rhythm sleep wake disorders
delayed sleep phase type
advanced sleep phase type
irregular sleep-wake type
non-24-hour sleep-wake type
shift work type
jet lag type
unspecified type
difference between irregular sleep-wake type and non-24-hour sleep-wake type
irregular is unpredictable w/ no discernable circadian rhythm and non-24-hour circadian cycle is longer or shorter than 24 hours so sleep phases drift
types of parasomnias
NREM-related parasomnias
REM-related parasomnias
types of NREM-related parasomnias
sleepwalking
sleep terrors
confusional arousals
sleep-related eating disorder
what sleep phase does sleepwalking occur in
slow-wave sleep
another term for sleepwalking
somnambulism
sleep phase that sleep terrrors occur in
slow-wave sleep
REM related parasomnias
nightmare disorder
REM sleep behavior disorder
recurrent isolated sleep paralysis
when does sleep paralysis become a parasomnia
when it occurs at sleep onset or arousal
what are the other, less common parasomnias
exploding head syndrome
sleep-related hallucinations
sleep enuresis
d/t substance
d/t medical condition
what do yo always check in RLS
ferritin level
definition of periodic limb movement disorder
brief stereotypic repetitive movements of limbs usually in NREM approximately every 20-40 seconds and frequently associated with brief arousals and involves extension of big toe
which conditions can cause periodic limb movement disorder
folate deficiency
renal disease
anemia
antidepressant use
what is sleep-related bruxism?
grinding teeth in sleep
