The chapter ‘ADHD and sleep’ provides an overview of what is known about sleep in children with ADHD. The chapter begins by discussing normal sleep patterns across the lifespan, how sleep is regulated, and the consequences of insufficient sleep. It then reviews the literature relating to the prevalence and potential causes of sleep problems in children with ADHD. The chapter then provides an overview of both subjective and objective assessment methods of sleep in children with ADHD before reviewing the evidence for and providing recommendations for treatment of sleep problems in children with ADHD. The chapter concludes with suggestions for the future.

Objectives: To assess the pattern of sleep and the correlation with socio demographic parameters in patients with depressive disorder. Study Design: Descriptive cross sectional study. Study Setting and Duration: A psychiatric consultation clinic in Karachi from January 2015 till December 2019. Methodology: Patients between ages of 18 and 60 years, irrespective of gender were included in the study. Patients with florid psychotic symptoms, dementia and chronic debilitating medical illness such as chronic renal or liver failure were excluded. Pattern of sleep was categorized as patients with normal sleep (sound sleep of 7-9 hours), insomnia and hypersomnia. Diagnosis of Insomnia and hypersomnia was made according to ICD – criteria. Results: The mean age of patients was 30.89 (10.256) years. Age was significantly associated with the pattern of sleep among depressed patients. Younger patients between the ages of 18-35 years more frequently suffered from insomnia while the older patients (35-65 years) were more frequently experiencing hypersomnia (p=0.01). The majority of the patients who were either separated or divorced experienced hypersomnia, 15 (71.4%) however, the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.582). The most common psychiatric comorbidity among patients was obsession compulsion disorder (OCD) with a frequency of 225 (39.4%) followed by anxiety disorders; 100 (17.5%). Conclusion: Our study indicates that sleep patterns are significantly challenged in depression patients. The younger population was more prone towards insomnia while the older patients more frequently had hypersomnia. Further large scale studies are needed to explore the risk factors associated with the sleep disturbance and the role normal sleep patterns play in recovery of depressed patients.

Educational aimsThe reader will be able to:Understand normal sleep patterns in infancyAppreciate disorders of breathing in infancyAppreciate disorders of respiratory controlNormal sleep in infancy is a time of change with alterations in sleep architecture, sleep duration, sleep patterns and respiratory control as an infant grows older. Interactions between sleep and respiration are key to the mechanisms by which infants are vulnerable to sleep disordered breathing.This review discusses normal sleep in infancy, as well as normal sleep breathing in infancy. Sleep disordered breathing (obstructive and central) as well as disorders of ventilatory control and infant causes of hypoventilation are all reviewed in detail.

Objective To describe two elderly patients with dementia and severe nighttime wandering in whom Zolpidem restored normal sleep patterns. Case Summaries A 90-year-old African-American woman (case 1) and an 87-year-old African-American man (case 2) presented with nighttime wandering associated with the progression of Alzheimerlike dementia. Both patients had previously not responded to bedtime regimens of benzodiazepines, trazodone (an antidepressant used for its sedative properties), and neuroleptics. Both patients averaged 2–3 hours of sleep each night. Low-dose Zolpidem (5 mg hs) was initiated with only partial response. The dosage was titrated in 5-mg increments until the optimum dosage was reached for case 1 (15 mg hs) and case 2 (10 mg hs). These dosages have proven to be effective over a period of 3 months, with both patients averaging 7–8 hours of sleep each night with no apparent adverse effects. Discussion Dementia produces inversion of the circadian sleep/ wake cycle, leading to daytime sedation and nighttime wandering. Zolpidem, a nonbenzodiazepine hypnotic with proven safety and efficacy in older patients with insomnia, was well tolerated and improved sleep patterns in two patients with dementia and severe nighttime wandering. Conclusions Zolpidem appears to be useful for restoring normal sleep patterns in elderly patients with dementia and nighttime wandering.
