Sleep disorders are a large and under-recognized problem in many parts of the world. Based on the international classification of sleep disorders (ICSD), the most frequent and often the most severe are obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome (RLS), periodic limb movement disorder, insomnia, parasomnias, circadian rhythm disorders including jet lag and shift work, and sudden infant death syndrome (94). However, the major research focuses on insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, and restless legs syndrome since they are among the most highly prevalent sleep disorders and there are established links between them and other health conditions (94).

Published in Cathy Laver-Bradbury, Margaret J.J. Thompson, Christopher Gale, Christine M. Hooper, Child and Adolescent Mental Health, 2021
This chapter will focus on behavioural insomnia of childhood, the commonest cause of chronic insomnia in this age group. Chronic insomnia is defined by the International Classification of Sleep Disorders III as difficulties falling asleep or staying asleep for three or more nights a week over three or more months. While behavioural insomnias are common, practitioners need to be aware of the spectrum of sleep disorders that may present in childhood and, importantly, that behavioural insomnias may co-exist with other disorders, e.g. sleep apnoea or parasomnias.

A total of 55 pre-pubertal children (Tanner stages 1–2 assessed via the Self-Administered Rating Scale for Pubertal Development; Carskadon & Acebo, 1993) between ages 7–11 years [n = 31 female; Mage = 9.11 (1.36)] and a parent participated in a larger study examining sleep and emotional health in children. Exclusion criteria of the larger study included (a) past/present suicidal ideation; (b) evidence of International Classification of Sleep Disorders (American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2005) sleep disorder(s) assessed via diagnostic clinical interview; (c) full-scale IQ below 85; (d) body mass index >95th percentile (based on common association with sleep apnea); (e) chronic medical condition potentially affecting sleep; (f) medication use potentially impacting mood/sleep; and (g) abnormal sleep schedules evidenced by averaged total sleep time <8 hours or >11 hours, consistent with population-based estimates (Holley, Hill & Stevenson, 2010; Williams et al., 2013), or variable nightly sleep/wake times greater than 90 minutes based on parent report or one week of actigraphy.

Finally, the International Classification of Sleep Disorders – Third Edition (ICSD-3) was used to define 11 items listed as symptoms of daytime impairment due to poor sleep, including feeling tired or fatigued; having trouble paying attention, concentrating, or remembering things; having difficulty with daily activities; having difficulty with social life; feeling irritable, depressed, or anxious; feeling sleepy; having less motivation, energy or drive; making mistakes or errors; having accidents or mishaps; feeling hyperactive, impulsive, or aggressive; and having concerns about or dissatisfaction with sleep (American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 2014). The percent of the 11 items endorsed was used to indicate the overall endorsement of daytime impairment symptoms (0-100% of symptoms).

Participants were recruited through advertisements and clinical referrals and study procedures were approved by the University of Michigan Medical School Institutional Review Board. All participants provided written informed consent. To be eligible, participants had to be 18–65 years old, meet DSM-IV criteria for MDD of at least moderate severity (≥18 on the 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, HAMD-17), habitually spend 7–10 h in bed at night, and be free of antidepressants ≥2 weeks (≥4 weeks for longer-acting antidepressants). Exclusion criteria included: (1) lifetime DSM-IV diagnosis other than MDD or generalized anxiety disorder; (2) past 6-month DSM-IV diagnosis of alcohol abuse; (3) medical conditions associated with depression or that interfered with sleep; (4) sleep disorder other than insomnia; (5) use of prescription or over-the-counter remedy for sleep or depression; (6) failed fluoxetine trial within the past 6 months; (7) overnight shift work; (8) pregnancy, breastfeeding, or inadequate contraception in women of childbearing potential; (9) known contraindication to fluoxetine; and (10) clinical laboratory values outside normal limits. Eight participants were excluded for suspicion of either sleep-related breathing disorder (six participants) or periodic limb movement disorder (two participants), based on the International Classification of Sleep Disorders-2 criteria during in-laboratory screening with polysomnography that followed standard procedures (Iber, Ancoli-Israel, Chesson, & Quan, 2007).
