It is known that EEG findings reveal various abnormalities in patients with involuntary movement. But these findings are not specific. It has been reported to be related to myoclonus and spike. The other involuntary movement is unknown to the relation to EEG findings. The involuntary movement usually disappears during sleep, but a certain involuntary movement appears only during sleep. In the patient with Huntington's chorea and dystonia musculorum deformans, PSG reveals an increase in interspersed wakefulness, decrease of deep sleep and prolongation of REM latency. Periodic limb movement and nocturnal paroxysmal dystonia appear only during sleep. Nocturnal sleep studies are important for exploring the pathophysiology in involuntary movement.
