  • The Comfort Lift Pillow Company Introduces
    Positional Therapy Pillows LLC ComfyLiftBed™ “The Positional Therapy Pillow Experts”™ Instruction Information The head-wedge elevation was uniquely designed with a counter-foot-wedge that holds the child in place all night. The Toddler Pillow/Bed is designed with the growing child in mind, using a foot-adjusting feature to account for growth of the child. This feature makes the Toddler Bed/mattress a long-term form of treatment for children’s sleep breathing - related disorders. Warning: The ComfyLiftBed™ mattress is intended only for children 1 yr and older! European & Am. Pediatric Society Recommendations: *Waterproof Matt and Cotton Mattress Covers ♦5.1.3. Lifestyle Changes in Children and Included*. Adolescents It is likely therefore that adolescents, -FDA registration# 3008009633 like -Texas Dept. of Health Medical Device adults, may benefit from the left lateral decubitus sleeping position with elevation of the head of the License.# 1000208 bed. The bed/mattress is designed to have an elevated head rest that raises the upper body of the child. This elevation will keep stomach acid out of the esophagus, as well as assist in breathing. We have also included a 3" or 5” (adolescent) wedge to prop the top head portion of the pillow up higher in cases where children have more severe symptoms or require higher elevation. Since children tend to roll off of the side of the mattress, a side barrier on each side of the mattress creating a concave design that will cradle the child in the center of the mattress. Many sleepers will slide down the mattress as well. To correct this, foot rests have been added.

  • WHO Technical Meeting on Sleep and Health
    WHO technical meeting on sleep and health Bonn Germany, 22-24 January 2004 World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe European Centre for Environment and Health Bonn Office ABSTRACT Twenty-one world experts on sleep medicine and epidemiologists met to review the effects on health of disturbed sleep. Invited experts reviewed the state of the art in sleep parameters, sleep medicine and, long-term effects on health of disturbed sleep in order to define a position on the secondary and long- term effects of noise on sleep for adults, children and other risk groups. This report gives definitions of normal sleep, of indicators of disturbance (arousals, awakenings, sleep deficiency and fragmentation); it describes the main sleep pathologies and disorders and recommends that when evaluating the health impact of chronic long-term sleep disturbance caused by noise exposure, a useful model is the health impact of chronic insomnia.
