Sleep disorders and daytime somnolence have not been systematically studied in the
Huntington disease (HD) population. In this study we have assessed nocturnal sleep and
daytime somnolence in 30 patients recruited from a subspecialty HD clinic. Disturbed
nocturnal sleep and excessive daytime somnolence were common in this cohort. Further
studies employing objective measures of sleep/daytime somnolence in the HD population
are needed.
