We are interested in expanding our objective sleep study to adolescents with NF1. Previous studies have reported that children with NF1 are significantly more likely to have disturbances in initiating and maintaining sleep, waking, sleep-wake transitions and are reported to have higher sleep quantity not due to a co-existing condition or stimulant medical use.

This Research study includes:

  • 2 week participation
  • Wearing a wrist activity monitor
  • Recording sleep logs
  • Cognitive assessments
  • Melatonin saliva sample
