18
Q

Name the breathing related sleep disorders DSM diagnosis

What’s to know about breathing related sleep disorders?

A

1-Obstructive sleep apnea
2-central sleep apnea
3-sleep related hypoventilation

Risk factors for OSA: male, middle age, obesity, micrognatie, retrognatia, hypot4, acromegalia
Most frequent complaint is daily somnolence
20 % prevalence
tx: lose weight, sleep on back, CPAP, sx, stop etoh and sedatives

In central sleep apnea, there is no respiratory effort during apnea (*vs effort in OSA). Often secondary to carida and neurological issues. More often in elderly. No snoring.

19
Q

What is the most important risk factor of insomnia?

A

Past episode of primary insomnia

20
Q

What are the DSM criteria for insmonia disorder?

A

  3. Early-morning awakenings

B. Sleep disturbance cause significant distress/impairment

C. At least 3 nights per week

D. For at least 3 months

E. The sleep diff occurs despite adequate opportunity to sleep

F. The insomnia is not better explained by another sleep-wake do, substance or GMC

Specifyers: 
With non-sleep disorder mental comorbidity including SUD
With other medical comorb
With other sleep do
Episodic (at least 1 mo less 3 mo)
persistent (3 mo or longer)
or recurrent (2 or more in 1 yr)
21
Q

Treatent of insomnia do?

A

CTBi first line

  • psychoed on sleep hygene and stimuli control (wake up same hour, use bed only for sleep, no nap)
  • restriction of sleep (reduce time spent in bed to increase sleep efficacy. When 85% is reach, increae time in bed 15 min at a time)

Cogitive therapy is second line (decrease importance and consequence of lack of sleep, reduce rx, relaxation techniques)

Rx only temporary (<4 weeks), low dose, intermittent use, short-half life, no recommended for chronic insomnia

22
Q

What is hypersomnolence disorder?

A

  • difficulty being fully awake after abrupt awakening

B. At least 3 timers per wekk for at least 3 months

Usually starts 15-25 yo and tends to become chronic

23
Q

What are the main types of circadian rythm sleep-wake disorders?

A

1) Delayed sleep phase type: most common, normal sleep once initiated, endogenous rythm affected (T, melatonin)
2) Advance sleep phase type: tx: luminothx in evening
3) Irregular sleep-wake type: associated with neurodegenerative do
4) Non-24 hours sleep-wake type: in 50% of blind, tx: melatonine HS
5) Shift work type: in 5-10% of night shift workers, tx: naps before work, minimise sun before going to bed (wear sunglasses)
6) Unspecified
7) jet-lag: atteinte proportionnelle au nombre de fuseaux horaire traversés (worse if 8 or more in less than 24hrs). Travel toward east is worse. Tx: melatonin

24
Q

What are the criteria of circadian rythm sleep-wake do?

A

A. A persistent patter of sleep disruption that is due to an alteration of the circadian system (misalignement between the endogenous circadian rythm and the sleep-wake schedule required by an individual’s physical environment or social or professional schedule.
B. The sleep disruption leads to excessive sleepiness or insomnia or both
C. Cause distress impairment

28
Q

What are DSM criteria of nightmare disorder?

29
Q

What’s to know about nightmare disorders?

A

Usually starts between 3-6 yo
Rare in adults
BPD, schizotypal and scz are at riks
During REM, so no mvt
Specify if acute (less one months), subagute (1-6mo), persistant (+ 6 mo)
Specify severity (mild = less than one per week) (moderate=one episode or more per week), severe is Qnight
Tx: SSRI and ATD because it supresses REM sleep
Avoid L-dopa, B-blockers
