Pediatric Sleep Center
The Johns Hopkins Pediatric Sleep Center provides comprehensive evaluation and family-centered care for children with sleep concerns.
Our multidisciplinary sleep clinics provide access to highly trained physicians, respiratory therapists and cognitive behavioral therapists to help children and families cope with sleep disorders.
Our center also provides pediatric sleep studies (polysomnography) in laboratories accredited by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, which are located throughout Maryland. Our laboratory specialists are experts at performing studies for even the youngest children, and we work to provide the best experience for each child and their family in our labs.
Conditions We Treat
Our clinical experts see patients with:
- Snoring and suspected sleep apnea
- Known obstructive sleep apnea requiring continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) therapy
- Sleep-related respiratory failure or apnea related to neuromuscular diseases such as muscular dystrophy or cerebral palsy
- Conditions that increase the risk of sleep-disordered breathing, such as obesity, Down syndrome and achondroplasia
- Daytime sleepiness and narcolepsy
