The most common sleep disorders that can result in injurious or violent behaviors include REM sleep behavioral disorder, sleepwalking, comorbid parasomnias, sleep-related dissociative disorder, and obstructive sleep apnea. Video polysomnography is usually indicated to evaluate recurring sleep-related injury in adults. Only one-third of patients with complex paroxysmal nocturnal events will have one of their habitual events on a single night of in-laboratory video polysomnography, most often those who have prominent, high-frequency motor features. We report evidence of sleep walking induced by sodium oxybate identified by steps recorded on a consumer wearable device coinciding with clinical history and evidence of injury.

Audiovisual analysis of the diagnostic video polysomnography in patients with isolated REM sleep behavior disorder.
J Neurol
January 2025
Sleep Unit, Neurology Service, Hospital Clínic Barcelona, IDIBAPS, CIBERNED, Universitat de Barcelona, Villarroel 170, 08036, Barcelona, Spain.
Background: The diagnosis of isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (IRBD) requires video polysomnography (V-PSG) showing increased muscle activity and abnormal behaviors in REM sleep.
Objective: To describe in IRBD the behavioral manifestations occurring during REM sleep in the diagnostic V-PSG.
Methods: This is a systematic audiovisual V-PSG analysis of consecutive IRBD patients.
Mild behavioral impairment in idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder and Lewy body disease continuum.

Department of Neurology, Seoul Metropolitan Government-Seoul National University Boramae Medical Center, Seoul National University of College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
To investigate the clinical impact of mild behavioral impairment (MBI) in a predefined cohort with Lewy body disease (LBD) continuum. Eighty-four patients in the LBD continuum participated in this study, including 35 patients with video-polysomnography-confirmed idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) and 49 clinically established LBD. Evaluations included the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), neuropsychological tests, and MBI Checklist (MBI-C).

The gold standard for diagnosis of OSA is in-laboratory polysomnography (PSG). However, access to PSG can be challenging, necessitating development of alternative devices.

Background: Oximetry was proposed as an abbreviated exam, easily accepted by the child, for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) for children located in regions where access to pediatric sleep labs is limited. The objective of this study was to determine the diagnostic value of the oxygen desaturation index (ODI), the number of ≥ 3% oxygen desaturations per hour of recording, obtained by portable oximetry performed in parallel with video-polysomnography (PSG), in a cohort of children, with and without comorbidities, referred for OSA.
Methods: Data from portable oximetry performed in parallel with PSG were prospectively collected.
Ictal SPECT Imaging Findings in Parkinson's Disease with Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder.

Department of Neurology and Nuclear Medicine, University of Stellenbosch, Cape Town, South Africa.
Background: Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is an established prodrome and symptom of synucleinopathies. The pathophysiology of this disorder has been well studied but there is a lack of functional imaging data to illustrate the dysfunction in vivo.
Objectives: We aimed to investigate the functional changes of RBD, by performing ictal REM sleep SPECT, comparing subjects with Parkinson's Disease (PD) and evidence of RBD to subjects with PD and no RBD.
