Topic Narcolepsy and other hypersomnolences at paediatric age: clinical presentation, workup, treatment
Description:
I will provide the definition of the most important terms used in the context of excessive daytime sleepiness in children and adolescents, discuss the differential diagnoses, and outline how to proceed with the diagnostic work-up when faced with such symptoms in a patient. I will also describe the different phenotypes, child-specific aspects, and pathophysiological explanations. Additionally, I will give an overview of non-pharmacological and pharmacological treatment options and highlight key considerations when managing patients with narcolepsy and other central hypersomnolences.
Speaker: Prof Dr. Alexandre Datta
Chair: Prof. Federico Vigevano
