Overview
The 1st ESRS Paediatric Sleep School took place from 11–13 April 2024 at the beautiful Bertinoro Castle in Italy.
Over two and a half days, a distinguished group of international paediatric sleep experts covered all aspects of paediatric sleep health—from neurophysiology to the ontogeny of sleep in infants, children, and adolescents. The programme also offered best practices for evaluating and treating paediatric sleep disorders, along with hands-on sessions focused on polysomnography, polygraphy, and actigraphy procedures in this population.
