In-person versus online delivery of a behavioral sleep intervention (Sleeping Sound) for children with ADHD: protocol for a parallel-group, non-inferiority, randomized controlled trial.

Background: Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) often experience sleep difficulties such as difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep. Problem sleep may impact children's daily functioning and behaviors and exacerbate ADHD symptoms. Most effective behavioral interventions to improve sleep are conducted in person, limiting accessibility to treatment for individuals in remote or rural communities or those who are unable to attend a clinic.

Behavioral Sleep Interventions for Children With ADHD: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Objective: To evaluate intervention characteristics and components within behavioral sleep interventions in school-aged children with ADHD and examine evidence related to effectiveness.

Method: A systematic review was conducted using PsycINFO, Embase, MEDLINE, PubMed, and OpenGray. The subsequent meta-analysis used sleep outcomes to produce comparable effect sizes (Hedges' ) and compare intervention effects between randomized controlled trials and pre-post studies.

Prediction of Multidimensional Fatigue After Childhood Brain Injury.

Objectives: To determine (1) the presence of fatigue symptoms and predictors of fatigue after childhood brain injury and examine (2) the feasibility, reliability, and validity of a multidimensional fatigue measure (PedsQL Multidimensional Fatigue Scale [MFS]) obtained from parent and child perspectives.

Setting: Emergency and intensive care units of a hospital in Melbourne, Australia.

Participants: Thirty-five families (34 parent-proxies and 32 children) aged 8 to 18 years (mean child age = 13.
