TY - JOUR PY - 2019// TI - Night stepping: Fitbit cracks the case JO - Journal of clinical sleep medicine A1 - Somboon, Thapanee A1 - Grigg-Damberger, Madeleine M. A1 - Foldvary-Schaefer, Nancy SP - 355 EP - 357 VL - 15 IS - 2 N2 - 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.
