Disorders of arousal include confusional arousals, sleepwalking and sleep terrors. The diagnosis of disorders of arousal is based on the clinical criteria established in the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, third edition, although the interobserver reliability of these criteria has never been investigated. The aim of this study was to estimate the inter-rater reliability of the diagnostic criteria for disorders of arousal throughout the whole life in order to understand their feasibility in clinical daily activity and in multicenter observational studies.

Abstract
Disorders of arousal include confusional arousals, sleepwalking and sleep terrors. The diagnosis of disorders of arousal is based on the clinical criteria established in the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, third edition, although the interobserver reliability of these criteria has never been investigated. The aim of this study was to estimate the inter-rater reliability of the diagnostic criteria for disorders of arousal throughout the whole life in order to understand their feasibility in clinical daily activity and in multicenter observational studies.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
