Abstract

Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep disorder is a parasomnia in which physical activity is present when a state of atonia should be manifest instead. The activity may vary from verbal behaviors (eg. talking or shouting) to more extreme motor behaviors (eg. moving in bed, fighting, standing, moving about, and falling). Men and older individuals are more likely to present with REM disassociation sleep disorders. REM sleep disorders can be a prodrome of a Parkinsonian disorder or Lewey body pathology [1].
