Screening for sleep disorders in children with cerebral palsy using connected tools

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to validate a method for screening sleep disorders in children with cerebral palsy (CP) using connected technologies. Given that nearly 40% of children with CP experience sleep disorders that often go undiagnosed, the study seeks to optimize the screening process to identify those who may require further evaluation through polysomnography (PSG). By leveraging connected tools, the research intends to improve access to diagnosis and management of sleep disorders in this population. The study will involve children aged 6 to 15 years with confirmed CP and will assess the effectiveness of these technologies in selecting candidates for PSG.
