Sleep Europe 2024 | The challenges of diagnosing hypersomnolence in children
Lucie Barateau, MD, PhD, Gui-de-Chauliac Hospital, CHU Montpellier, Montpellier, France, discusses the challenges of diagnosing hypersomnolence in pediatric populations, highlighting the lack of normative values for children in key tests like the Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) and the Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT). She emphasizes the need for more age-specific data to better evaluate excessive daytime sleepiness and sleep disorders in children. This interview took place at the Sleep Europe 2024 congress in Seville, Spain.
