Sleep disorders and daytime somnolence have not been systematically studied in the Huntington disease (HD) population. In this study we have assessed nocturnal sleep and daytime somnolence in 30 patients recruited from a subspecialty HD clinic. Disturbed nocturnal sleep and excessive daytime somnolence were common in this cohort. Further studies employing objective measures of sleep/daytime somnolence in the HD population are needed.
