| Description | Journal: Psychiatry and clinical neurosciences Gross body movements (GM) during sleep, classified into four GM types by the involved parts of body, were evaluated using two-dimensional video analysis in five normal children aged 4-12 years. The rate of occurrence of all GM types showed apparent sleep stage dependency. Among four GM types, GM-1 (GM with axial rotation) was the most frequent. Averaged duration of GM-1 was the longest. A total of 77.2% of GM-1 started with the contraction of chin muscle and 35% of total sleep changes (tSC) were related to GM. A total of 5.6% of tSC following GM shifted to the deeper stage. Further evaluation is necessary in order to understand the physiological mechanism of GM. |
