Outcome

Type
SECONDARY
Title
Sleep Disturbance
Description
The PedsQL questionnaire includes one or two questions, depending on age, about sleep. For children \<24 months, parents are asked the frequency (never, almost never, sometimes, often, almost always) their child has (1) difficulty falling asleep and (2) difficulty sleeping through the night. For children ≥2 years, parents are asked the frequency their child has trouble sleeping. We categorized children as either without sleep disturbance (Never for each sleep question) or with sleep disturbance. Outcome measure shows the number of participants with sleep disturbance.
Time frame
Days 5-10 Interview
