1 Preparation guidelines for your Child s Sleep Study Patient Sticker here Maintain your child s regular night sleeping and nap schedule for several days before the study. On the day of the study, do not let your child have any food or drink with caffeine such as chocolate, coffee, tea or soft drinks. Please have your child eat a normal evening meal. You may want to bring light snack for you and your child. On the day of the study, bathe your child and shampoo their hair. Do not use conditioner, hair spray, gel, body lotions or oils. These can disturb the sensor-to-skin contact needed to obtain data. Bring things from home that will make your child more comfortable in the Lab. Suggestions are a special blanket, stuffed animal, toothbrush, books, VCR tapes and pillow. One parent or caregiver will need to stay overnight. Only the parents or guardians are allowed to stay with the child. Please bring proof of legal guardianship to the sleep study. Children 13 and under must be attended by a parent/guardian at all times. Adults intending on staying the night of the study need to bring photo identification. Adults without proper identification will be requested to leave for security reasons. Please make care arrangements for siblings and other family members. Please bring the child s insurance information, i.e. insurance card and/or letter of insurance authorization. Continue your child s normal medications, unless told by the physician to stop them. If your child becomes ill or has a change in his/her condition please notify us as soon a possible. Bring your child s medications to the hospital the night of the test. This is very important. You will be responsible for giving the medications to your child, as the technician is not permitted to do so. If your child wears diapers, please bring those supplies too. If your child has special medical or physical needs, please let us know so that we can make arrangements to provide for your child s needs. Please bring a pair of pajamas (the 2 piece footless type) and a change of clothes. Complete attached questionnaire. We offer tours of the Sleep Center to help make children more comfortable. If you would like to schedule a tour, call the Sleep Center at These guidelines are to help us provide you and your Physician with an accurate Sleep Study. If you have any question about these guidelines, please call the Sleep Disorders Center at Parent or Guardian s Signature Date
