Definition
For insomnias, hypersomnias, or circadian rhythm disturbances that do not meet criteria for any specific Dyssomnia. Examples include:
1 – Complaints of clinically significant insomnia or hypersomnia that are attributable to environmental factors (noise, light, frequent interruptions).

Definition
A) Repeated awakenings from the major sleep period or naps with detailed recall of extended and extremely frightening dreams, usually involving threats to survival, security, or self-esteem. The awakenings generally occur during the second half of the sleep period.
B) On awakening from the frightening dreams, the person rapidly becomes oriented and alert (in contrast to the confusion and disorientation seen in Sleep Terror Disorder and some forms of epilepsy).
C) The dream experience, or the sleep disturbance resulting from the awakening, causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.
D) The nightmares do not occur exclusively during the course of another mental disorder (a delirium, PTSD) and are not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance or a general medical condition. |

Definition
A) Recurrent episodes of abrupt awakening from sleep, usually occurring during the first third of the major sleep episode and beginning with a panicky scream.
B) Intense fear and signs of autonomic arousal, such as tachycardia, rapid breathing, and sweating, during each episode.
C) Relative unresponsiveness to efforts of others to comfort the person during the episode.
D) No detailed dream is recalled and there is amnesia for the episode.
E) The episodes cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.
F) The disturbance is not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance or a general medical condition. |

Definition
A) Repeated episodes of rising from bed during sleep and walking about, usually occurring during the first third of the major sleep episode.
B) While sleepwalking, the person has a blank, staring face, is relatively unresponsive to the efforts of others to communicate with him or her, and can be awakened only with great difficulty.
C) On awakening (either from the sleepwalking episode or the next morning), the person has amnesia for the episode.
D) Within several minutes after awakening from the sleepwalking episode, there is not impairment of mental activity or behavior (although there may initially be a short period of confusion or disorientation).
E) The sleepwalking causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning.
F) The disturbance is not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance or a general medical condition. |

Definition
Disturbances that are characterized by abnormal behavioral or physiological events during sleep or sleep-wake transitions, but that do not meet criteria for a more specific Parasomnia. Examples include:
1 – REM sleep behavior disorder: motor activity, often of a violent nature, that arises during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Unlike sleepwalking, these episodes tend to occur later in the night and are associated with vivid dream recall.
2 – Sleep paralysis: an inability to perform voluntary movement during the transition between wakefulness and sleep. The episodes may occur at sleep onset (hypnagogic) or with awakening (hypnpompic). The episodes are usually associated with extreme anxiety and, in some cases, fear of impending death. Sleep paralysis occurs commonly as an ancillary symptom of Narcolepsy and, in such cases, should not be coded separately.
3 – Situations in which the clinician has concluded that a Parasomnia is present but the etiology is unknown. |
