筋けいれんの診断アルゴリズム

通常、筋けいれんは数分で自然に治まる。この“数分で治まる”との記述は、筋短縮(shortening)を伴わない筋炎、筋痛症や、不随意の筋短縮(shortening)を伴うが痛みの原因にならないミオトニアやテタニーなど痛みを伴う筋疾患と鑑別するのに役立つ。

Abstract/Text: Muscle cramps are one of the most frequently occurring neuromuscular features. They occur normally in healthy persons, can be the manifestation of one of several cramp syndromes, but can also be the expression of various underlying neuromuscular disorders. We review the various types and boundaries of cramps, ranging from true muscle cramps to electromyographic silent muscle contractures (for example, Brody's disease) and cramps associated with dystrophinopathies. In addition, we delineate true muscle cramp from muscle stiffness and muscle twitching. Finally, we propose a workup in a patient suspected of having muscle cramps.

睡眠に関連する下肢筋けいれんの診断基準;the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (2005)

  1. 夜間のこむらがえりの原因や誘因となり得る基礎疾患などを評価することは重要であり、加えて慎重な病歴聴取や徹底的な検査が必要である。レストレスレッグス症候群(RLS)、(夜間)周期性四肢運動、閉塞性動脈硬化症などによる下肢の血行不全、末梢神経障害や筋緊張異常を伴う筋疾患は、夜間のこむらがえりと混同される可能性があるので、各疾患の特徴を理解しておく必要がある。
  1. RLSと夜間のこむらがえりはともに睡眠中に起こり、痛みを伴う場合があるが、RLSは脚を動かすことにより持続する不快感と痛みが楽になる。(夜間)周期性四肢運動は睡眠中にみられ、筋の硬化や痛みを認めず、ストレッチを必要としない。末梢血行不全は脈拍減弱や間欠性跛行がみられ、夜間のこむらがえりと対照的に安静で軽快する。神経損傷や筋の病理学的変化を通じて、末梢神経障害はこむらがえりの原因となり得るが、神経診察で感覚障害や運動障害がみられる。足の限局性ジストニアは一見すると夜間のこむらがえりに似ているが、拮抗筋と協働筋が同時に収縮し、ストレッチで軽快しない。

Abstract/Text: Nocturnal leg cramps are a frequent cause of sleep disturbance among the general population, especially among the elderly. These painful episodes can delay sleep onset and awaken the patient from sleep, as well as delay subsequent return to sleep. Different mechanisms have been proposed to explain this phenomenon. Although most cases of leg cramps are idiopathic, multiple secondary causes of sleep-related leg cramps have been identified as well. In this article, we review the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and risk factors and discuss the salient features of the diagnosis and workup. Finally, we review the wide array of behavioral and pharmacologic treatments that have been studied for nocturnal leg cramps.
