About

Our primary purpose is to compare the prevalence of sleep disorders in children aged 6 to 17 with cystic fibrosis versus controls with a Sleep disorder screening score, the SDSC. Our hypothesis is that patients aged 6 to 17 with cystic fibrosis have a higher prevalence of sleep disturbances than the general population of the same age group.

Our secondary hypothesis is that these sleep disorders are mixed and that there are non-respiratory causes, sometimes modifiable by simple non-medical treatment and that's why our secondary purpose is to identify the responsible factors, in particular non-respiratory factors in the 2 groups and to compare them.

Control group, children from 6 to 17.

Description:

This group is the control group. It is made up of children consulting in pediatric surgical emergencies, aged 6 to 17 years.
