    This article considers first the relationships between sleep disturbances and psychiatry in general. It shows the interest of sleep recordings in psychiatric diseases as a complementary examination, in order to clarify a diagnosis or the selection of a treatment. Sleep disturbances in the main psychiatric disorders are described: brain organic diseases, thymic disorders, schizophrenia. Modifications of sleep are also found in many other psychiatric disturbances such as anxiety or neuroses. Polysomnography is an excellent functional examination of the brain and has an increasing importance in psychiatry.
