Abstract
Pediatric sleep disorders represent a heterogeneous collection of disturbances that require varied intervention strategies. The diagnosis of some sleep disorders (eg, OSAS, narcolepsy, PLMD) require PSG, whereas others can be diagnosed during an office visit with a thorough medical,psychiatric, and sleep history. Sleep disorders place children at risk for school failure, accidents, and social problems, and can place a significant burden on families and the parent-child relationship.
