Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides comprehensive coverage of all aspects related to pediatric sleep and its associated disorders. It addresses the ontogeny and maturational aspects of physiological sleep and circadian rhythms, as well as the effects of sleep on the various organ systems as a function of development. Organized into nine sections, the book begins with a basic introduction to sleep, and proceeds into an extensive coverage of normative sleep and functional homeostasis. Part three then concisely examines the humoral and developmental aspects of sleep, namely the emerging role of metabolic tissue and the intestinal microbiota in regulation. Parts four, five, and six discuss diagnoses methods, techniques in sleep measurement, and specific aspects of pharmacotherapy and ventilator support for the pediatric patient. Various sleep disorders are explored in part seven, followed by an in-depth analysis of obstructive sleep apnea in part eight. The book concludes with discussions on the presence of sleep issues in other disorders such as Down syndrome, obesity, cystic fibrosis, and asthma. Written by recognized leaders in the field, Pediatric Sleep Medicine facilitates an extensive learning experience for practicing physicians who encounter specific sleep-related issues in their practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to research, more than 50% of patients seen in psychiatric clinics have sleep problems. Despite this fact, there is a lack of sleep medicine training in psychiatric residency programs especially for disorders like insomnia and sleep-related problems in women and children. Also, there is a lack of education on treating sleep problems in special situations like ICU settings or managing sleep problems via telemedicine. Sleep physicians, on the other hand, are uncomfortable treating patients with the psychiatric disorders, particularly in this demographic. Pediatricians are also not trained to work with children suffering from sleep disturbances or psychiatric disorders. They often struggle to correctly identify a particular disorder and lack confidence to adequately treat and manage these issues. In total, there are only about 250 clinicians trained in both sleep medicine and psychiatry, despite the millions of patients who could benefit from both disciplines. While Springer does have a forthcoming text on sleep and psychiatric disturbances that addresses comorbid sleep disorders in the general population, there is still no resource that examines the intricacies of insomnia in women and children. This text highlights the importance of common medical comorbidities and illuminates the salient points for treatment, diagnosis, and management of these conditions as they relate particularly to these special populations. Written by experts in both sleep medicine and psychiatry, the text takes a cutting-edge, reader-friendly approach to topics that include sleep disturbances in pregnancy, sleep tele-medicine, sleep disturbances related to difficulties in schools, and substance-induced disturbances. Each chapter follows a consistent format, making it an excellent tool for the busy clinician who is not able to sift through scientific literature or didactic texts. Psychiatric Sleep Disorders in Women and Children is an excellent resource for all clinicians who may work with special populations struggling with sleep and psychiatric comorbidities, including psychiatrists, sleep medicine physicians, internists, primary care and family medicine physicians, pediatricians, obstetrics/gynecologists, psychologists and others.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most commonly diagnosed behavioral disorder of childhood. Age-inappropriate daytime and nighttime locomotor overactivity and disturbed sleep have been well documented in ADHD. This study's objective was to examine the relationships between daytime hyperactivity symptoms, sleep and rest/activity circadian rhythms in children with ADHD before and after treatment with stimulant medication. Fourteen unmedicated boys (mean age 8.7 years) with ADHD-Combined Type participated. The children's psychiatric symptoms and sleep and circadian rhythms were assessed using parental and teacher reports, one overnight polysomnographic recording, and ambulatory activity monitoring for 96 consecutive hours. The psychiatric and sleep assessments were repeated following a stimulant titration period of approximately 4-8 weeks. It was hypothesized that at the pre-treatment phase, increased hyperactivity severity would be associated with poorer sleep, weaker and more delayed rest/activity rhythms. Those children with weaker baseline circadian patterns were also hypothesized to have more sleep difficulties at post-treatment. Spearman correlations and canonical correlations were computed between ADHD severity and the sleep and circadian variables, controlling for any primary sleep disorders. Pre-treatment results indicated that increased hyperactivity levels were associated with (1) parental reports of poorer sleep hygiene and more difficulties initiating but not maintaining sleep, (2) objectively greater nocturnal activity and more disturbed sleep, and (3) weaker but not shifted rest/activity circadian rhythms. Although parents did not perceive any sleep changes as a function of treatment, an stimulant-induced objective improvement in sleep consolidation was observed. Post-treatment results also indicated a weaker baseline circadian rhythm did not increase the risk of poor sleep, however an overall reduction in the robustness of the rest/activity rhythm was seen. The weakening of the rest/activity circadian rhythm is likely reflective of the stimulant-induced decrease in objective daytime activity, resulting in a reduced fit of the circadian model to the rest/activity data. The number and severity of inattention symptoms were not related to any of the sleep or circadian variables at pre- or post-treatment. These findings suggested daytime hyperactivity may be linked to nighttime overactivity and poor sleep in ADHD, and that stimulant treatment may have positive effects on sleep and rest/activity rhythms.

Book excerpt: In her first book of The Quest Series, The Quest for Better Rest, Sleep Solutions from an ADHDer, author Aiden Ashlyn shares her sleep strategies for addressing insomnia and other sleep disorders prevalent in ADHDers of all ages. Ashlyn explores sleep cycles, why good sleep matters, and the bidirectional relationship between sleep and ADHD; ADHD affects sleep, and lack of sleep adversely affects ADHDers. Knowledge is power: understanding sleep, sleep disorders, problems, and habits is the first step to solving the ADHD/Sleep dilemma. Ashlyn presents dozens of therapies and practices to guide readers on their quest to discover good nights and better days. The author examines and encourages sleep hygiene and explains why a relaxing evening routine can be a very effective sleep tool for adults and children with ADHD. She shares personal experiences and insights while fully embracing her neurodiversity and presenting an ADHD-positive perspective. There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to finding sleep solutions for ADHD. And that's why so many methods are presented in the book, including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) for sleep Acupuncture Acupressure Supplements Yoga Nidra Meditation Hypnosis Prescription and Over-the-Counter Drugs And much more... Ashlyn embraces the amazing way the ADHD brain works. Her book is a compassionate and comprehensive guide to empowering fellow ADHDers to find their sleep solutions, resulting in restful nights and rested days. Ashlyn writes, "If you have struggled with your sleep for years, no quick fix will magically grant you eight uninterrupted hours. However, lifestyle changes, medication, and therapies can help you overcome years of dysfunctional sleep and put you on the path to restful nights once you find the right combination of strategies. I'm not a doctor or a pharmaceutical rep; I'm just an ADHDer with sleep difficulties who took my health into my own hands and did the research to fix my personal sleep difficulties. Now, I want to share my discoveries with you." If you are looking for a comprehensive guide to help you get better sleep, look no further - this book is for you.
