Scenаriо 18 A 7-yeаr-оld femаle presents tо the sleep clinic for evaluation for the suspicion of OSA by the patient’s PCP due to reported snoring and witnessed breathing pauses in sleep. During the sleep study, the sleep tech noticed that the child started to stare—described as “freezing”—and being unresponsive for 30 seconds as she was falling asleep. The sleep tech asked her to remember the color “blue” during the event, but she could not recall it after her brief spell ended. There was no reported jerking of the body or face noticed during this spell. No similar episodes in the past were reported by her mother, nor were there reports of tongue biting or loss of urine or stool occurring for no reason during the night. There were no episodes of waking up confused during sleep or hand flailing. There were no concerns raised by the family or school in the past in regard to her school attendance or performance. There is no family history of sleep apnea, epilepsy, meningitis, or other CNS infection. There is no history of febrile seizures as well as no other risk factors for epilepsy. The patient was not taking any medications at the time of the sleep study. Her ESS score was 8/24. The patient’s sleep-wake schedule is regular with a TST of 10-11 hours per night. Her bedtime (both weekdays and weekends) is 8:30-9:00pm. She usually falls asleep in 10-15 minutes with no night awakenings. She wakes up at 7:30am on weekdays and 8:30am on weekends. There are no specific bedtime routines, use of electronics, or screen time reported by the parents. She does not take daytime naps. Her dinnertime is around 6-7pm. Clinical Findings: Normal vital signs BMI 18.2 Mallampati Class II PSG Findings: SL 14 min. SE 90% TST 495 min. AHI 12 Mean CO2 35 mmHg PLMI 0 Sample of the EEG activity on the PSG: Refer to Scenario 18 to answer questions 58-61. 58. Based on the case information, what is MOST LIKELY causing the EEG activity noted on the PSG?
Scenаriо 16 A 7-yeаr-оld femаle was brоught in by her mother for evaluation of sleepwalking and sleep talking. This started when the patient was 2 years old. Her mother reported she would hear the child sit up and get out of bed, start walking around in her room, open the doors, and turn on lights. She would then proceed to go downstairs and grab objects lying on the dining table. The parents would then bring their daughter back into her bedroom without waking her. Almost always, she would return to bed without any issues. These episodes occur 2-3 times weekly. On some occasions, vocalizations accompanied the sleepwalking. The parents were not aware of arousals prior to sleepwalking and denied seeing any seizure-like activity. The day after sleepwalking episodes, the patient did not recall the events ever taking place. The patient’s mother reports that these episodes usually begin about 30-90 minutes after the patient falls asleep, though she notes they occasionally happen as late as 2am. Her parents report intermittent snoring, but not every night. The patient’s mother heard the patient grind her teeth when she sleeps in the car. Her parents also report that the patient has mild daytime sleepiness and hyperactivity. Her mother estimated her ESS score at 2/24. The patient’s current sleep schedule consists of going to bed at 8:30pm every night and awakening at 3:30-4:30am on weekdays because of her parents’ long commute. On weekends, the patient sleeps until 6:30-8:00am. She falls asleep in less than 5 minutes. She “naps” in the early morning from 5:00-6:30am while riding in the car. Her family history is notable for two uncles and a cousin who sleepwalk. Medical History: Intermittent asthma Allergic rhinitis Medications: Albuterol inhaler Fluticasone nasal spray Diphenhydramine Clinical Findings: BP 97/63 HR 95 bpm RR 20 bpm O2 saturation 99% on room air Weight 55 lb. Mallampati Class I Refer to Scenario 16 to answer questions 51-52. 51. Looking at the patient history, what could be contributing to the frequency of the sleepwalking events?
