Agrypnia excitata is an extremely rare, life-threatening syndrome characterized by autonomic activation, persistent insomnia, and generalized overactivity. Agrypnia excitata describes a triad of three separate conditions: delirium tremens, Morvan's chorea, and familial fatal insomnia (FFI). Each of the aforementioned three conditions have sleep disturbances as a unifying theme and results in distinct neurophysiological findings. The following is an overview of agrypnia excitata with a particular emphasis placed upon each of the three individual conditions that constitute the syndrome with recommendations on appropriate management.
兴奋性失眠症是一种极为罕见且危及生命的综合征，其特征为自主神经激活、持续失眠和全身过度活跃。兴奋性失眠症描述了三种独立疾病的三联征：震颤谵妄、莫尔凡舞蹈症和家族性致死性失眠症（FFI）。上述三种疾病都有睡眠障碍作为统一的主题，并导致不同的神经生理学发现。以下是兴奋性失眠症的概述，特别强调构成该综合征的三种独立疾病，并就适当的治疗提出建议。
