BACKGROUND
Good sleep is essential for the growth and the development of children. However, sleep is often impaired in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). It is important to assess the sleep quality in pediatric AD patients. For that purpose, we utilized actigraphy as an objective method for the assessment of sleep quality.
METHODS
Childhood patients with AD (16 cases) and 8 non-allergic volunteers were recruited. Actiwatch (AW-64) was attached to each subject's wrist for 11 days at maximum. Sleep parameters were calculated with Actiware and compared among various patient groups.
RESULTS
Results demonstrate that sleep was significantly compromised in patients with AD, according to the severity. Subjective scoring of the sleep quality by parents showed limited correlation with actigraphy.
CONCLUSION
Actigraphy is an objective and unobtrusive method to measure the sleep quality in childhood AD patients and can provide useful outcome in clinical trial.
背景
良好的睡眠对儿童的生长发育至关重要。然而，特应性皮炎（AD）患者的睡眠常常受到损害。评估小儿AD患者的睡眠质量很重要。为此，我们采用活动记录仪作为评估睡眠质量的客观方法。
方法
招募了16例儿童AD患者和8名非过敏志愿者。将活动记录仪（AW - 64）最多戴在每个受试者手腕上11天。使用活动记录仪软件计算睡眠参数，并在不同患者组之间进行比较。
结果
结果表明，AD患者的睡眠根据严重程度受到显著损害。父母对睡眠质量的主观评分与活动记录仪显示出有限的相关性。
结论
活动记录仪是一种客观且不引人注意的方法，可用于测量儿童AD患者的睡眠质量，并能在临床试验中提供有用的结果。
