ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a questionnaire called the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire, which helps identify sleep problems in children, specifically those with obstructive sleep disordered breathing (OSDB). The researchers want to see how well this questionnaire works with children in Sweden aged 18 months to 15 years who show symptoms of sleep issues.

To participate, children must be referred to ear, nose, and throat (ENT) clinics due to sleep problems and should be able to speak and understand Swedish. Unfortunately, children with certain conditions, such as craniofacial abnormalities, Down syndrome, or neuromuscular disorders, cannot participate. Families who join the trial can expect to help researchers gather important information that could improve the understanding and treatment of sleep disorders in children. Your involvement could make a difference in how sleep issues are identified and managed in the future!
