Assessment of sleep disturbances and exhaustion in mothers of children with atopic dermatitis
JAMA May 13, 2019
Ramirez FD, et al. - Researchers sought to assess the sleep disturbances over time between mothers of children with vs without atopic dermatitis (AD) and also to ascertain if these disturbances were correlated with the child’s disease severity and the child’s sleep disturbances. They enlisted all pregnant females staying in Avon, United Kingdom, with an expected delivery date between April 1, 1991, and December 31, 1992, in this ongoing Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children. In this cohort study of 11649 mother-child pairs from September 2017 to September 2018, throughout the first 11 years of childhood, mothers of children with AD reported difficulty falling asleep, subjectively insufficient sleep, and daytime exhaustion. Clinicians should consider maternal sleep disturbances and caregiver fatigue when caring for children with AD.
