Sleep disturbances and sleep disorders are prevalent in children/adolescents and have a bidirectional relationship with pediatric medical and mental health disorders. Screening tools and mechanisms for the evaluation and treatment of sleep disturbances and sleep disorders in the pediatric mental health clinic are less well-known; hence, sleep disturbances and disorders are under-recognized in the pediatric clinics. We present specific, validated screening and evaluation tools to identify sleep disturbances and sleep disorders in children/adolescents. We offer guidance related to the use of consumer wearables for sleep assessments and use of sleep telemedicine in pediatric mental health and primary care clinics.
睡眠障碍在儿童和青少年中普遍存在，且与儿科的躯体和精神健康障碍双向关联。儿科精神科对于儿童睡眠障碍的评估和治疗的筛查工具和机制还鲜为人知；因此，儿科门诊对儿童睡眠障碍的认识还不足。我们提供了特定的、经验证的筛查和评估工具，以识别儿童和青少年的睡眠障碍。我们还提供了与使用消费者可穿戴设备进行睡眠评估以及在儿科精神科和初级保健诊所使用睡眠远程医疗相关的指导。
