Summary

This study is translating a sleep screening questionnaire into Turkish and testing how well it works for children with complex chronic conditions. Researchers will enroll 330 children and teens, tracking their sleep at home and during stays in the pediatric intensive care unit. The goal is to create a reliable tool to identify sleep problems in this vulnerable group.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a reliable Turkish-language tool to screen for sleep problems in children with complex chronic conditions, helping doctors identify and address sleep issues earlier.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study focused on translating and validating a questionnaire, not testing a treatment. The tool may not work equally well for all children or settings, and results may not apply outside Turkey.
