Summary

The crude prevalence rate of Parkinson's disease in Upper Egypt governorates ranging from 557-436/100,000 (Assiut and Qena governorates respectively) which was one of the highest prevalence of PD around the world .Parkinson's disease patients report having complaints of disrupted sleep anywhere from 60 to 98 %. This is one of the most common non-motor symptoms, and it is a substantial contributor to the diminished quality of life associated with Parkinson's disease. PD patients have poor sleep maintenance and fragmentation (Comella 2007, Khedr et al. 2013). Khedr et al (2013) found that; 78.6% out of 112 patients with PD had sleep disturbances with the commonest complaint being difficulty getting to sleep at night or staying asleep (46.4%) followed by vivid nightmares and night terrors (27.7%). In other studies, 80-90% of PD patients have had sleep difficulty with virtually all patients having symptoms at some time in the course of the disease .

Interventions

DEVICE

repititive transcranial magnetic stimulation

a figure-of-8 coil (7-cm diameter loop) positioned over the parietal area for ten sessions (10 trains, with frequency of stimulation 20-Hz, each lasting for 10 seconds with an inter-train interval of 30 seconds. The intensity of stimulation was set at 80% of the RMT for the first dorsal interosseous (FDI) of the contralateral hand with a total 2000 pulses for each parietal area.)
