Summary

Narcolepsy is a sleep disorder characterised by excessive daytime sleepiness and significantly impacts quality of life. People with narcolepsy demonstrate many potential barriers to being physically active, such as sleepiness and social isolation. Very little is known about how physical performance variables may be affected and influence disease experience in people with narcolepsy. This study aims to profile the physical fitness and physical functioning variables of adults with narcolepsy and to explore the relationship between physical variables, quality of life, symptom severity and disease experience in this cohort.
