NCT ID NCT06582121
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at sleep problems in people with Parkinson's disease and those with a sleep disorder called REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD). Researchers will compare sleep quality among these groups and healthy volunteers using overnight sleep tests. The goal is to better understand how sleep is affected in these conditions.

Inclusion Criteria: Common to all groups: * Age superior 18 years * Patients who have received complete information about the study from an investigator and who fully consent to participate. For Parkinson Disease (PD): * Patients followed for PD diagnosed according to international criteria for the diagnosis of PD (MDS criteria), * A MoCA score greater than 20/30 * No treatment with deep brain stimulation. For REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD): * Diagnosis of RBD according to ICSD-3 criteria: presence on polysomnography of an abnormal elevation of muscle tone during REM sleep (more than 18% of REM sleep without chin atonia) and/or the presence of REM sleep behaviors on video-polysomnography, * Absence of progressive neurodegenerative pathology: absence of diagnostic criteria for PD, multiple system atrophy, or Lewy body dementia.
