  • Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in Children and Adolescents Across the Weight Spectrum
    Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in Children and Adolescents across the Weight Spectrum by Lilach Kamer A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Lilach Kamer 2011 Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in Children and Adolescents across the Weight Spectrum. Lilach Kamer Master of Science Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2011 Abstract A relationship between overweight and excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) has been suggested in the adult population, and to a limited extent in the pediatric population. Daytime sleepiness can interfere with various components of daytime function. In light of the increase in the rates of pediatric overweight and obesity, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between weight and EDS in a pediatric population. Using a retrospective approach, data collected in a pediatric sleep clinic was analyzed. Objective measures of EDS were correlated with age, gender, body mass index percentile, and overnight sleep test recording variables. In males and in all children under the age of 13 years old, EDS was more common in those weighing above the normal range, EDS was present particularly during mid-morning hours. Additionally, weight above the normal range correlated with evidence of EDS after adjusting for measures of sleep pathologies. - ii - Acknowledgments First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Colin Shapiro for the opportunity to work and learn at the Youthdale Child and Adolescent Sleep Center, and for patiently developing my budding research skills. To the staff at the Youthdale Child and Adolescent Sleep Center, especially Dragana Jovanovic and Inna Voloh, for introducing me into the intricate world of pediatric sleep testing as well as Dora Zalai and Rose Lata for their patience, advice, dedication and willingness to accommodate my research needs…and for smiling while they do this.

  • SIDS Prevention
    6 SAND HILL ROAD – SUITE 102 FLEMINGTON, NJ 08822 PHONE 908-782-6700 FAX 908-788-5861 SIDS Prevention SIDS or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, also known as Crib Death, refers to unexplained death during sleep in the first year of life in otherwise healthy babies. The majority of cases of SIDS occur between one and six months of age. Several factors have been identified that can decrease the chances of SIDS. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends the following measures to help reduce your baby’s risk of SIDS. “Back to Sleep” - Infants who sleep on their backs have a 50% reduction in the chance of dying from SIDS. Infants who sleep on their sides have less reduction in SIDS, so only back sleeping is recommended. This applies to naps as well as nighttime. Devices such as sleeping wedges are not recommended, as babies are more likely to flip over when the devices are used. Use a firm sleep surface without padding. A thin sheet between baby and mattress is fine, but do not use fluffy mattress pads or sheepskin. Keep soft objects out of the crib. This includes stuffed animals, blankets, pillows, and quilts. There should be no loose bedding, including blankets. Use a blanket sleeper or tuck the blanket under the sides of the mattress. Soft or loosely attached bumper pads should be removed. Do not smoke. Infants exposed to tobacco smoke have a higher risk of SIDS. Infants should not sleep in the same bed as adults. A close-by but separate sleeping environment supports breastfeeding and avoids the possibility of smothering the baby.
