Interrelation Between Sleep Quality and Health-related Quality of Life in Parkinson’s Disease: Insights Into Subjective Sleep Impairment
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Sleep disturbances are among the most prevalent non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease (PD), significantly affecting patients’ overall health-related quality of life (HRQoL). While motor symptoms such as tremor, rigidity, and bradykinesia are hallmarks of PD, sleep-related issues—ranging from insomnia, REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), restless legs syndrome (RLS), and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS)—represent key determinants of subjective well-being and daily functioning. Numerous studies have shown a strong correlation between impaired sleep quality and lower HRQoL scores in PD patients. This review explores the prevalence, types, mechanisms, and clinical implications of sleep disturbances in PD, emphasizing their direct impact on HRQoL. Moreover, it highlights current assessment tools, management strategies, and future research directions to improve both sleep and life quality outcomes in PD populations.
