    Journal: J Clin Sleep Med; 2019 Feb 15; 15(2):355-357. PubMed ID: 30736884.
    Abstract:
    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.
