Screening sleep problems in children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial checks a new way to find sleep problems in children with cerebral palsy using connected tools (like devices/apps). It mainly helps by making sleep screening easier and more accurate, so families can get the right next steps sooner.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at breathing problems during sleep in children with cerebral palsy. It aims to understand sleep-disordered breathing in kids who are at higher risk for breathing issues.
This study tests a Turkish version of a sleep screening tool for children (ages 1 month to 18 years) with complex chronic conditions who were in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). It aims to help doctors assess sleep problems more easily.
This trial aims to find and support babies who are at risk of cerebral palsy (CP) as early as possible. It checks specific early signs and brain or health risk factors, then helps determine whether early intervention might improve outcomes.
This study looks at how a child’s sleep looks on a sleep-monitoring test and how that relates to brain/learning growth over time. It includes some children without known risks and some children with known developmental or learning risks, to better understand sleep’s role.
This study tests a child sleep “sensor” device in kids who have been referred to a sleep clinic because sleep apnea is suspected. It may help doctors diagnose sleep problems more easily using extra information from the sensor.
This study tests a smartphone app that measures how children with cerebral palsy move. It aims to see if the app can accurately track motor abilities, which could help doctors and families monitor progress more easily.
