Hypersomnia is a condition characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness where a person may fall asleep during work, eating, or conversations. It can be caused by drug or alcohol abuse, head trauma, certain medications, depression, obesity, or neurological conditions like multiple sclerosis or epilepsy. Parasomnias refer to abnormal behaviors that occur during sleep and don't cause insomnia or sleepiness. They involve partial arousals or abnormalities in sleep-wake transitions. Examples include sleep terrors in children characterized by screaming and intense fear, and restless leg syndrome in the elderly causing urges to walk to relieve feelings in the calves and thighs every 15 to 40 seconds during sleep.

Sleep disorders
This document summarizes several common sleep disorders: insomnia, sleep apnea, parasomnia, sleep paralysis, hypersomnia, sleepwalking, narcolepsy, snoring, restless legs syndrome, and circadian rhythm sleep disorders. Insomnia involves difficulty falling or staying asleep. Sleep apnea interrupts breathing during sleep and is associated with health risks. Parasomnia describes night terrors that typically affect children. Sleep paralysis occurs upon waking when one is conscious but unable to move. Hypersomnia makes people susceptible to excessive daytime sleepiness. Sleepwalking involves performing activities while still asleep. Narcolepsy involves sudden sleepiness and other symptoms like cataplexy. Snoring is caused by airway obstructions and may indicate sleep ap
Narcolepsy
Narcolepsy is a sleeping disorder characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness and frequent sleep attacks. Symptoms include cataplexy (loss of muscle control triggered by emotions), sleep paralysis, microsleep (brief sleep episodes with no memory), nighttime wakefulness, and hallucinations when falling asleep or waking up. There is no cure for narcolepsy, but treatment aims to control symptoms through lifestyle changes like scheduled naps and light meals, as well as prescription medications to promote wakefulness. Narcolepsy can develop at any age but often first appears in teenagers and young adults.
Sleep disorders premnath cnt
This document summarizes key aspects of sleep and sleep disorders. It discusses the physiological changes that occur during the different sleep stages of NREM and REM sleep. It also outlines different types of sleep disorders including dyssomnias like insomnia and hypersomnia, and parasomnias involving abnormal events during sleep. Specific disorders covered include sleepwalking, night terrors, sleep talking and bruxism. Nursing assessments and interventions for managing sleep disorders are also summarized.

Nocturnal epilepsy often involves seizures that occur during sleep, especially in children. Seizures typically happen in stages 1 and 2 of non-REM sleep and can be confirmed through an EEG induced sleep study. Seizures may present as crying, violent movements, or unusual postures during sleep. After a tonic-clonic seizure, the person may appear to be in a deep sleep but are difficult to arouse. Nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy is characterized by bursts of movements during non-REM sleep, sometimes with fearful expressions. Episodic sleep phenomena like night terrors and restless leg syndrome can be distinguished from seizures through characteristics like duration and responsiveness to treatment.
Sleep disorders
Sleep is a normal state of altered consciousness that allows the body to rest. It involves decreased responsiveness and can be characterized by different sleep stages including slow-wave non-REM sleep and REM sleep. Sleep requirements vary by age but most adults need 6-8 hours per night. Disorders can cause difficulties initiating or maintaining sleep (insomnia) or excessive daytime sleepiness (hypersomnia). Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may involve changes to sleep hygiene, medications, or addressing lifestyle factors. Nursing care focuses on establishing regular sleep schedules and routines to support restful sleep.
Movement disorders
1) Chorea is a genetic disorder caused by an abnormal expansion of CAG nucleotide repeats in the Huntington gene (HTT) located on chromosome 4p16.3. This results in production of mutant huntingtin protein (mHtt) which causes degeneration of neurons in the brain.
2) Symptoms include involuntary dance-like movements or chorea, cognitive decline, psychiatric problems like depression and aggression. Onset and severity depends on number of CAG repeats - higher repeats cause earlier onset of more severe symptoms.
3) There is no cure for Chorea. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms like antipsychotics for psychosis, antidepressants for depression, tranquilizers for anxiety and chorea. Nursing care

Opening Hours: 24X7Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptx
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.
