Idiopathic Hypersomnia

A sleep disorder marked by extreme daytime sleepiness despite getting adequate or prolonged sleep at night. Its exact cause is unknown, and diagnosis often requires ruling out other conditions through specialist testing.

Idiopathic hypersomnia presents with excessive daytime sleepiness without cataplexy or abnormal REM onset, distinguishing it from narcolepsy. Patients often struggle with prolonged sleep inertia and difficulty waking.

MSLT and extended PSG help confirm diagnosis. Stowood’s technology supports accurate measurement of sleep latency and architecture.
