Popis: Abnormal behavior in sleep has multiple potential etiologies including untreated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), REM behavior disorder (RBD), nocturnal seizures and disorders of partial arousal. These can be differentiated by characteristic clinical, polysomnography (PSG) and electroencephalography (EEG) findings [1]. We describe a patient with different types of abnormal behavior in sleep, caused by OSA and hypoglycemia.
