RESUMEN
Evaluamos los trastornos de sueño en ocho pacientes con distrofia miotónica tipo 1 confirmada genéticamente, con edades comprendidas entre 38 y 58 años. Los pacientes fueron estudiados mediante polisomnografía y test de latencias múltiples de sueño. Encontramos excesiva somnolencia diurna en el 75% de los pacientes, no justificable por los eventos respiratorios durante el sueño. El modafinil mejoró este síntoma en todos ellos (AU)
ABSTRACT
We investigated the sleep disorders in eight patients with genetically confirmed myotonic dystrophy type 1, aged from 38 to 58 years. Patients were studied with nocturnal polysomnogram and multiple sleep latency tests. We found excessive daytime sleepiness in 75% of them, not accountable for respiratory events during sleep. Modafinil improved this symptom in all of them (AU)
