Analyzing the relationship between sleep and brain function, and improved management of sleep in patients with neurologic diseases, this new edition includes sections on the role of hypothalamic dysfunction in narcolepsy and the link between sleep apnea and hypertension, heart disease, and stroke. This guide offers recommendations for managing primary sleep disorders, sleep disorders secondary to established neurologic disorders, and neurologic consequences of uncontrolled sleep conditions.
The only reference covering the diagnosis, treatment, and management of these conditions, this guide explores:
• effects of sleep disorders on both the healthy and diseased brain
• neurobiology of sleep and development of sleep disorders
• sleep disorders associated with neurodegenerative diseases, restless legs syndrome, and circadian sleep disorders
• new topics in narcolepsy, sleep apnea, and movement disorders, and findings of new epidemiological studies
