hipersomnolencia idiopática del sistema nervioso central
Scope note: Trastorno del sueño que se origina en el sistema nervioso central y que se caracteriza por tener un sueño nocturno prolongado y períodos de somnolencia diurna. Los individuos afectados tienen dificultad para despertarse por la mañana y puede asociarse una borrachera por sueño, conductas automáticas y trastornos de la memoria. Esta afección difiere de la narcolepsia en que los períodos de sueño diurno son más prolongados, no hay asociación con CATAPLEJIA y la prueba de latencia múltiple del sueño no registra movimientos oculares rápidos en su comienzo.

Scope note: A sleep disorder of central nervous system origin characterized by prolonged nocturnal sleep and periods of daytime drowsiness. Affected individuals experience difficulty with awakening in the morning and may have associated sleep drunkenness, automatic behaviors, and memory disturbances. This condition differs from narcolepsy in that daytime sleep periods are longer, there is no association with CATAPLEXY, and the multiple sleep latency onset test does not record sleep-onset rapid eye movement sleep. (From Chokroverty, Sleep Disorders Medicine, 1994, pp319-20; Psychiatry Clin Neurosci 1998 Apr:52(2):125-129)
