    The sleep disorders (SD) are a group of pathologic conditions that have been defined based on clinical presentation and diagnostic criteria . There is a classification system published by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) that standardizes the diagnosis of sleep disorders and is especially useful in the research setting .
    This system recognizes six major sleep disorder categories: Insomnia, Sleep-related breathing disorders, Hypersomnia, circadian rhythm sleep disorders, Parasomnias, and Sleep-related movement disorders. Of those disorder categories, the most common in advanced cancer patients, compared with the general population, is Insomnia, which accounts for 35% of the diagnoses in these patients .
