Abstract

More than 50% of patients with idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) will develop Parkinson's disease or Lewy body dementia. In a previous study, we found attenuated heart rate responses in iRBD and Parkinson's disease patients during sleep. The current study aimed to evaluate heart rate variability further in order to identify possible changes in these components during wakefulness and sleep in patients with iRBD and Parkinson's disease.
