  • Title: Screening and evaluation of sleep disorders in children and adolescents.
    Author: Luginbuehl M, Kohler WC.
    Journal: Child Adolesc Psychiatr Clin N Am; 2009 Oct; 18(4):825-38. PubMed ID: 19836690.
    Abstract:
    Most pediatric professionals do not use a systematic screening, identification, or referral process to detect serious sleep problems and disorders in children and adolescents. Therefore, only 2% to 3% of children with sleep disorders are identified and treated. This article presents a screening, referral, and diagnostic process that helps detect and correct sleep disorders that impact children's learning, behavioral and emotional functioning, and health.
