Paediatric Sleep Disorder
Paediatric Sleep Disorder (PSD) is a common clinical condition that affects children and adolescents. It is characterized by disruption of normal sleep patterns, resulting in difficulties in falling asleep, staying asleep, or both. PSD can have significant implications for a child's physical, mental, and emotional health, impacting their ability to function effectively in daily life and potentially interfering with their school performance and social interactions. Treatment of PSD consists of lifestyle and behavioural changes, such as developing good sleep habits and avoiding stimulants close to bedtime, as well as the use of therapies such as cognitive-behavioural therapy and medication. An early and accurate diagnosis is essential in order to provide the optimal treatment and improve outcomes for children who suffer from PSD.
