Abstract

This book delves into the uncovered world of sleep in patients affected by neurological disorders and further explores those night hours that may be precious restoring sources of healing or else confirm, or exacerbate, daytime neurological symptoms. Within the gamut of abnormal movements during sleep, disorders such as epilepsy or Parkinson’s, dementia or Guillain Barré Syndrome (GBS) will contribute to a spectrum of described nocturnal behavioral patterns or seizures, which may represent important clues in the quest for understanding and treating these syndromes. Addressing night symptoms and sleep disturbance must be recognized as an important part of treatment since sleep alterations highly impact subjective feelings of well-being and quality of life in patients with chronic neurological disorders.

Abstract

2. The patient was adopted and he did not know any information about his familial history and his childhood. He was a chronic alcoholic. He had suffered from anxiety and depression for 15 years and was treated with escitalopram 20 mg/die, trazodone 150 mg/die and alprazolam according to necessity. Neurological examination showed postural tremor of both arms, left hemyipoesthesia and right Babinski. The patient was submitted to a neuropsychological evaluation. His scores were 26/30 on Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), 15 on Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) (>5 bad sleep quality), 26 on Hamilton Anxiety Rate Scale (HARS: 14-17 mild anxiety; 1824 moderate anxiety; 25-30 severe anxiety), 27 on Beck Depression Index (BDI, >10 mood disorders); he also underwent the SF-362v questionnaire to evaluate quality of life: Mental Component Score (MCS) 59.23 and Physical Component Score (PCS) 25.00, showing a bad quality of life. He obtained a brain CT showing chronic ischemic alterations of subcortical white matter and a video Polisomnography (videoPSG) including 8 leads EEG. Video-PSG detected parameters included: monopolar electroencephalogram, electro-oculogram, electromyogram of chin and tibialis anterior muscles, airflow, thoracic and abdominal efforts, snoring, electrocardiogram, body position, and oxiemoglobin saturation. The PSG recordings were scored according the second edition of International Coding of Sleep Disorders (ICSD-2, 2005) rules [1]. Video-PSG unexpectedly revealed rhythmic movements of the trunk, the head and body (300 episodes) predominantly distributed at sleep onset and upon arousals from different sleep stages including REM sleep. These movements lasted from 5 to 60 seconds. The patient had never reported these symptoms/events. The EEG montage showed no ictal or interictal abnormal discharge, excluding the presence of paroxysmal events. Sleep pattern was discontinuous and superficial with an arousal index of 24.5. Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI) was 12.9 (normal value
