Title
She’s Sleepy, but Doesn’t Sleep Well: Recognizing the Full Spectrum of Narcolepsy
Link
Description
Join Drs Kiran Maski and Luis Ortiz in this premiere episode of the Talking Curbside in Narcolepsy series, where they discuss the complexities of managing the full spectrum of narcolepsy symptoms in a “miserable” teenager. Their discussion highlights how focusing on daytime sleepiness neglects other core narcolepsy symptoms, such as fragmented nighttime sleep, sleep paralysis, and vivid hallucinations. These sleep experts then explore the role of oxybates to address a range of narcolepsy symptoms, while ensuring drug safety and mental health.
Target Audience
The activity is designed for US-based clinicians (eg, physicians, nurse practitioners [NPs], and physician associates [PAs]) who diagnose or treat central disorders of hypersomnolence (CDH), including clinicians who specialize in sleep medicine, neurology, psychiatry, or pulmonology.
Learning Objectives
  • Assess the full clinical spectrum of narcolepsy, including disrupted nighttime sleep (DNS) and hallucinations.
  • Describe the evidence base for the treatment of narcolepsy symptoms other than excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and cataplexy.
