Central Sleep Apnea

Apneic and hypopneic episodes without obstruction and usually results from cardiac or neurological disorders that cause impairment of ventilation.

Sedative/Hypnotic Chronic Use/Withdrawal - Mixed Insomnia and Hypersomnia

As the Pt. develops a tolerance for the drug, sedative effects decrease, and insomnia occurs. If the Pt. increases the dose of medication to compensate, then hypersomnia recurs. Withdrawal often results in insomnia with a decrease in sleep duration and an increased disruption of sleep and stage R sleep rebound as well as anxiety, tremors, and ataxia.

Child has had long periods (6-12 months) without any instances of nocturnal incontinence

Primary Enuresis

Child has never been dry at night, and incontinence is associated with delay in maturation and small functional bladder rather than stress or psychiatric disorders.

Repeated nightmares (sometimes associate with PTSD) that cause the Pt. to awaken fully alert, interrupting the normal sleep cycle. -Nightmares occur during REM sleep and tend to occur in the second half of the night when these periods are longer. The Pt. may suffer from fatigue from lack of sleep caused by frequent awakening or may avoid sleeping because of fear of the nightmares.

Narcolepsy

Repeated periods of falling asleep during waking hours daily for at least 3 months.

Measures sleepiness during waking hours and then tendency of a person to fall asleep. (May diagnose narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia and determine the effectiveness of therapy)

Anterior Tibialis Electromyograms

Monitor the electrical activity in the leg muscles, allowing for monitoring of periodic leg movement during the polysomnogram because electrical activity is absent when the muscle is relaxed and increases with movement.

Sleep Walking Disorder

Motor activity during sleep including sitting up, picking at bedding, talking, walking, running, operating machinery, and eating. Pt. may respond verbally to others, but speech may not be clear because of reduced alertness. The Pt.'s eyes are usually open. Typically, the Pt. does not awaken easily and is confused if awakened and has little or no memory of the episode.

Sleep Disorders

OSA, CSA, narcolepsy, circadian rhythm disorders, RLS , PLMs, parasomnias & insomnia.

Sleep-related groaning

Occurs during exhalation, primarily during REM. The respirations become slow, and the groaning exhalation may persist for 30 - 40 seconds, usually concluding with a grunting or sighing sound.

Occurs during sleep and are often associated with RLS (occuring in about 80% of patients with RLS) with five or more PLMS usually within the first half of the night.

Visual, auditory, or tactile hallucinations occur during onset of sleep (hypnagogic) or on waking (hypnopompic) sometimes associated with sleep paralysis. Images tend to be stationary and disappear if the light is switched on.

Opioid Use (Chronic) - Insomnia

While acute use of opioids may result in increased sleepiness with reduced stage R sleep, chronic use may cause insomnia with increased wakefulness and decreased sleep time.

Unspecified/advanced delay:

a circadian rhythm disorder: increasing of sleep onset latency resulting in changes in sleeping patterns over time with sleep onset occuring at increasingly later hours.

Chronic Insomnia

difficulty initiating & maintaining sleep over prolonged periods of time - has several forms: psychological, sleep-state misperception, hypnotic dependent sleep disorder & fatal familial insomnia.

Primary Insomnia

difficulty initiating and/or maintaining sleep, or having non-refreshing sleep for at least 1 month with onset usually after a stressful episode resulting in impairment of work, study, and social activities.

Cataplexy

sudden and uncontrollable muscle weakness or paralysis that is triggered by a strong emotion such as excitement or laughter; associated with narcolepsy - person is awake and aware of what is happeniing, but cannot move; episodes last up to 2 min: occurs because of the inability to regulate sleep & awake states
