“…Medication results from 80% of doctor visits for sleep (Stojanovski et al 2007 ). Medication presents a number of limitations, such as poor parental acceptance, long term inefficacy (France et al 1991 ), day time hangover effects (Wiggs and France 2000 ) and poor empirical support (Rosen et al 2002 ). Additionally, medication per se does not facilitate access to the environmental contingencies surrounding sleep and as such does not lead to learning of appropriate sleep onset behaviours.…”

Sleep disorders affect a large portion of those with autism spectrum disorder. Behavioural interventions have been found to increase appropriate sleep behaviours. This study sought to examine the efficacy of two stimulus control interventions (bedtime fading and positive routines) on total sleep duration, sleep onset latency and frequency and duration of night wakings for children with autism using two multiple baseline designs. Secondary dependent variables, namely, educational opportunities, challenging behaviours, parent acceptance and social validity were also analysed. Results suggest some efficacy for both interventions. Increased total sleep duration and decreased sleep onset latency were achieved with bedtime fading. Positive routines showed mixed results with decreased sleep onset latency and increased total sleep duration for two of three participants.

“…[2][3][4][5] Even higher prevalence rates have been reported in special needs populations, such as children with neurologic impairments, mental retardation, and pervasive developmental disorder and autism, 6 and in children with a variety of psychiatric (eg, attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder [ADHD], depression) 7 and medical conditions (eg, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, asthma). 8 A growing body of evidence shows that childhood sleep disturbances may have a wideranging impact on children's health; behavior; mood; neurobehavioral parameters such as attention, cognition, and memory; and school performance, as well as on parental stress and family life. 9 -14 A number of empirically sound and effective behavioral and cognitive/behavioral approaches to the treatment of pediatric insomnia, defined as significant and persistent difficulty in initiating and/or maintaining sleep, have been developed.…”

“…A review of current patterns of use of pharmacotherapy for pediatric sleep disturbances (Rosen, Owens, Scher, & Glaze, 2002) highlights the issues in prescribing sleep medications. The authors report a lack of data to support either the efficacy or the tolerability of these medications for pediatric populations.…”

This article provides an overview of pediatric sleep disturbances with emphases on types and treatments. Relationships between sleep disorders and comorbid conditions function to exacerbate and maintain both disorders. An estimated 20% of teenagers experience chronic partial sleep deprivation, resulting in problems with memory, attention, and behavior control. Treatment of choice for chronic partial sleep deprivation involves a comprehensive approach to regularizing the adolescent's sleep -wake schedule. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) calls into question the validity of upward trends in prescribing for children and adolescents who report sleep problems. The AAP has issued a consensus statement on prescribing hypnotics to children and adolescents, arguing that further clinical trials are necessary to determine appropriate pediatric dosages. The AAP recommends that pediatricians educate families about good sleep practices and behavioral interventions. C 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
