Summary

This observational study aims to see if people with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) have a higher rate of concussions or contact sports history compared to those without RBD. About 140 participants, aged 50 and older, will answer questions about past head injuries and sports. The goal is to better understand possible links between brain trauma and this sleep condition.
