PREVIEW

“Your parents are tired—go to bed!” Well-intentioned physicians trying to assist the fatigued family of a sleepless youngster may recognize this familiar refrain. Increased awareness of the problem, a firm grasp of the most common causes in each age-group, and an effective method of taking a history that is applicable to all age-groups are necessary to diagnose sleep disorders. In this article, the authors describe a practical approach to achieving results that are rewarding for physicians, reassuring to young patients, and gratifying to bleary-eyed parents.
