Abstract

Scientific BACKGROUND: Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterised by dream-enacting behaviors and loss of normal REM sleep muscle atonia. It could occur idiopathically or accompanying neurodegenerative diseases. “Acting out of dreams” permits violent or injurious behaviors. These behaviors could result in laceration, fractures, subdural haematomas and so on. In developed countries, the legal implications of these behaviors have been discussing and debating in medical and legal literature. But in Turkey, legal aspects of RBD have not discussed yet. CONCLUSION: In this review, the clinic, pathopysiology, therapy and medicolegal aspects of RBD is discussed.

Özet

Bilimsel zemin: REM uykusu davranış bozukluğu (RDB) “rüyaların canlandırılması” ve normal REM uykusu kas atonisi kaybıyla karakterize bir parasomnidir. İdiyopatik ya da nörodejeneratif hastalıklarla birlikte gözlenir. “Rüyaların canlandırılması” sıklıkla şiddet veya zarar verici davranışlara neden olur. Bunun sonucunda hastalarda ve yatak arkadaşlarında laserasyon, kırık, subdural hematom gibi yaralanmalar gelişebilir. Gelişmiş ülkelerde, bu davranışların legal sonuçları tıbbi ve hukuksal literatürde tartışılmaktadır. Ancak Türkiye’de RDB’ye hukuksal yaklaşım henüz ele alınmamıştır.YORUM: Bu yazıda RDB’nin kliniği, patofizyolojisi, tedavisi ve medikolegal yaklaşım ele alınmıştır.
