Frequency and nature of sleep disturbances amongst children with cerebral palsy in Northern Ireland: A cross-sectional study

This is the first UK study to quantify the frequency and nature of sleep disturbances in children with CP using the SDSC. Findings indicate the need for health professionals to routinely enquire about sleep and provide targeted support. Further population-based research is required to understand family sleep experiences over time and inform multidisciplinary intervention and policy.
