Abstract
Abstract
Background Children with cerebral palsy have a higher prevalence of sleep disorders, with numerous factors associated with a negative impact on the quality of life of caregivers.
Objective To identify factors related to sleep disorders, nonpharmacological treatment, and the impact on the lives of caregivers.
Methods The present literature review was carried out in the Latin American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences Information (BIREME), the Cochrane Library, Scopus, PubMed, the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PsycInfo, WorldCat, Web of Science, Latin American Literature on Health Sciences (LILACS), and Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), with the descriptors sleep, child, cerebral palsy, parents, and nursing. Studies available in Portuguese, English, or Spanish, published between 2010 and 2020, were our inclusion criteria. A total of 29 articles were included in the present review.
Results We considered nonpharmacological interventions effective support measures to drug-based treatments. The main sleep disorders in children with cerebral palsy are insomnia, parasomnias, nightmares, sleep bruxism, sleepwalking, sleep talking, disorders of initiation and maintenance of sleep, and sleep hyperhidrosis. Most studies point to a reduction in the quality of life of caregivers whose children have sleep disorders.
Conclusion Our review suggests the effectiveness of nonpharmacological treatments combined with the use of medications. Measures such as changes in sleep environment and routine are favorable strategies to improve sleep quality. In addition, children with sleep disorders negatively impact the quality of life of their caregivers.
