Abstract

A clear understanding of the child’s sleep and its maturation is essential if we are to avoid confusing the physiological phenomena which occur at certain times in life, with disorders of sleep organisation. This applies to the family, the doctor and to the paediatrician. Yet sleep characteristics evolve considerably in the course of maturation: whether in terms of ultradian and circadian sleep-wake rhythms, ultradian sleep stage rhythms, the electroencephalographic (EEG) characteristics of the different stages, sleep-related variables such as respiration or heart rate, changes in temperature, endocrine secretion etc.
