Brief Summary:

Sleep is an important health behavior for children and adolescents due to the impact it has on both mental and physical development. Although sleep is considered a resting period, it is also a period when the brain work to encode and consolidate memories into more stable representations for long term recall . Unfortunately, pediatric sleep disorders affect 25 - 40% of youth and several studies showed that children with chronic illness experience more problems with initiating and maintaining sleep than their non- chronically ill children .

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) affects the quality of sleep in children and adolescents as well as their caregivers. Sleep disturbances in patients with T1DM may negatively impact their ability to manage their diabetes .
