Sleep quality, anxiety, and depression among perioperative caregivers of children with tethered cord syndrome: a cross-sectional survey analysis
The study determined the occurrence of sleep disorders among primary caregivers of children with tethered cord syndrome. Furthermore, where the young age of the child, the presence of comorbidities, the time the child spent in a prone position after the operation, and the time spent caring for the child were significant factors. Future studies should explore the potential mechanisms and causal connections between caregiver sleep disorders and these crucial factors.
