The Basics of Pediatric Sleep: Screening for Sleep Problems

In the fifth part of our on-demand course for pediatric clinicians, “The Basics of Pediatric Sleep,” I discuss clinical screening and characteristics of the most common pediatric sleep disorders.

In a busy clinical practice, most providers simply ask about how much sleep a child is getting. While sleep duration is important, this question may miss other important aspects of a child’s sleep, including difficulties with falling asleep, staying asleep, and waking in the morning, as well as daytime sleepiness.

In this preview video, I provide some screening questions you can use in your clinical practice to learn more about a child or adolescent’s sleep.

If you are a pediatric clinician who wants to learn more about sleep, “The Basics of Pediatric Sleep” course is for you! The course includes:

• Four (4) hours of video content, broken into bite sized videos.

• Ten (10) case studies

• Topics including normal sleep across development, common pediatric sleep disorders, and treatments for sleep problems in infants through adolescents.

• CME credits available.
