Fragmentary Hypnic Myoclonus, Future studies should aim to quantify EFM in different patient populations. 1 A pathologic excess of the FHM is Excessive fragmentary hypnic myoclonus, hypnic jerks, hypnagogic foot tremor, alternating leg muscle activation, and sleep-related cramps are less known sleep-related motor Physiological fragmentary myoclonus occurring in normal human subjects was first described by De Lisi1 as consisting of brief, fine, twitch-like movements involving various body areas in asynchronous and Excessive fragmentary myoclonus (EFM) is a polysomnographic finding registered by the surface electromyography (EMG) and characterized as a result of the muscle activity consisting of sudden, Physiologic hypnic fragmentary myoclonus (PHFM) consists of sudden, arrhythmic asynchronous and asymmetric brief twitches involving various body areas, in particular distal limbs Intermittent arrhythmic and asyn-chronous myoclonic movements were recorded on EMG leads during non-REM as well as REM phases of sleep without associated abnormal behavior. Expanding the knowledge on these isolated symptoms and Excessive fragmentary myoclonus occurs in both, arms and legs, but much more frequent in legs. These symptoms can present as isolated motor symptoms but can be also the cause of otherwise cryptogenic insomnias and somnolence. Fragmentary hypnic myoclonus, contrarily to the massive jerks of HJ, consist of small muscular twitches, often representing only an EMG finding not associated with overt movements at Excessive fragmentary myoclonus (EFM), previously called excessive fragmentary hypnic myoclonus, is defined by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) as at least five Fragmentary hypnic myoclonus (FHM) is a physiologic motor phenomenon consisting of muscle twitches of fingers, toes, or angle of mouth during sleep.
