[A contemporary view at the classification of sleep disorders].
Sleep disorders although relatively new multidisciplinary territory in the field of medicine, have rather well developed classification system and nosology owing to the constant work of the American Academy for Sleep Medicine as well as the European, Japanese and Latin-American societies for sleep research. This collaboration produced the International classification of Sleep Disorders (ICSD) that has recently met its second revision. At the same time the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organization gives codes and enables statistical elaboration of a large number of sleep diseases. Differences between these two systems exist reflecting the basic principle used in their work out.
