ICD-11 code : 7B01.0;
Preferred Label : REM sleep behaviour disorder;
ICD-11 definition : REM sleep behaviour disorder is characterised by repeated episodes of sleep related
vocalization or complex motor behaviours that are either documented by polysomnography
to occur during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep or are presumed to occur during REM
sleep due to a clinical history of dream enactment. Polysomnographic recording (when
performed) demonstrates REM sleep without atonia. The disorder may occur as an isolated,
idiopathic form but is frequently associated with latent or manifest disease of the
nervous system, especially alpha-synucleinopathies. Note: A provisional diagnosis
may be established on clinical grounds but definitive diagnosis requires polysomnographic
demonstration of REM sleep without atonia.;
