The Basics of Pediatric Sleep: Social Jetlag

In the second part of our on-demand course for pediatric clinicians, “The Basics of Pediatric Sleep,” I talk about sleep and circadian physiology.

After discussing sleep architecture, Process S, and Process C, I discuss circadian misalignment, including social jetlag, something that happens when children and adolescents stay up late on and sleep in on weekends.

In this preview video, I discuss why it is so difficult to fall asleep on Sunday night after a teen has stayed up and slept in 3 hours later on the weekend, and how this impacts the rest of the week.

If you are a pediatric clinician who wants to learn more about sleep, “The Basics of Pediatric Sleep” course is for you! The course includes:

• Four (4) hours of video content, broken into bite sized videos.

• Ten (10) case studies

• Topics including normal sleep across development, common pediatric sleep disorders, and treatments for sleep problems in infants through adolescents.
