Özet

Introduction: Both narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia are the main causes of excessive daytime sleepiness. In this study, we aimed to compare polysomnography (PSG) and multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) findings in narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia patients. Methods: The files of patients with narcolepsy and hypersomnia who were admitted between 1995 and 2009 were reviewed. We evaluated data from 94 patients with narcolepsy with cataplexy, 49 with narcolepsy without cataplexy and 140 patients with idiopathic hypersomnia. Results: Sleep latency and REM latency were longer in idiopathic hypersomnia group than in narcolepsy with and without cataplexy group. Mean sleep latency in MSLT was the shortest in narcolepsy with cataplexy group. There was no difference in sleep efficiency, percentage of sleep stage and number of awakenings in PSG between three groups. Conclusion: The findings of the study indicated that narcolepsy patients differ from idiopathic hypersomnia patients in terms of sleep latency and REM latency in PSG. © Archives of Neuropsychiatry, published by Galenos Publishing.
