About the Event

Difficulty falling asleep, disturbed sleep and shortened sleep are common problems encountered by children with special needs. Autism, ADHD and Down syndrome, among other conditions, are associated with a higher risk of certain sleep disorders. While a good night’s rest is important for all of us, it is even more critical during a child’s early developmental years, and disrupted sleep patterns have unwanted knock-on effects.

In this online seminar, paediatric sleep specialists, Dr Albert Li and Dr Alice Siu will talk about:

  • Common sleep issues in children with special needs

  • Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) – its presentation, diagnosis and complications, and prevalence among preschool and primary school-aged children

  • Surgical and non-surgical management options for OSA

  • Extra precautions and considerations for children with special needs
