There is no common strategy for the determination of sleep stages in the childhood. In the first year of life, the differentiation in active and quiet sleep has been established. But there are several opinions about necessary parameters for the characterization of sleep states in this period of life. Therefore, the results of these evaluations are quite different. Our presented concept of sleep staging reflects neurophysiological, vegetative as well as behavioral parameters. The concept divides the sleep into light sleep, deep sleep and REM-periods. The determination of sleep states is possible by this concept both in infants and in children of different age, because it considers developmental changes of used physiological criteria.
在儿童睡眠阶段的判定上没有通用的策略。在生命的第一年，主动睡眠和安静睡眠的区分已经确立。但对于这一生命阶段睡眠状态特征的必要参数存在几种不同观点。因此，这些评估的结果差异很大。我们提出的睡眠分期概念反映了神经生理学、植物神经以及行为学参数。该概念将睡眠分为浅睡眠、深睡眠和快速眼动期。通过这一概念，在婴儿和不同年龄段的儿童中都可以判定睡眠状态，因为它考虑了所使用生理标准的发育变化。
