About

Laboratory polysomnography is the gold standard for objective sleep measurement. With hospital waiting times becoming increasingly long, outpatient polysomnography seems a good solution. Children are at greater risk of developing sleep disorders and polysomnography in the hospital laboratory can be a stressful examination for these children and their parents. This can be even more the case in populations of children with neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Attention Deficit Disorder with or without Hyperactivity (ADHD), or dys- learning disorders. Several studies have already demonstrated the feasibility of ambulatory, in a home setting, polysomnography in children. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the acceptability and satisfaction of performing polysomnography at home on a large cohort of children, including children with neurodevelopmental disorders.
