Hypersomnias are disorders associated with excessive daytime sleepiness not related to sleep deprivation, disturbed nocturnal sleep, circadian rhythm disturbances, sleep-related breathing disorders, or a medical condition. This chapter reviews the primary hypersomnias of narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia. Sleep-related movement disorders, including restless legs syndrome and periodic limb movements of sleep, are also commonly encountered in clinical practice. These common syndromes are reviewed in this chapter.
