Objective: There are few studies about sleep-related nighttime crying in early childhood (SRNC). The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of SRNC and to investigate factors influencing it among 3 to 36-month-old children.
Material and Methods: A questionnaire was administered to the parents of 3-36-month-old children visiting a well-child unit. Sociodemographic features and sleep characteristics of the children were evaluated. Children were divided into four age groups: Group 1=3-5 months, Group 2=6-11 months, Group 3=12-24 months, and Group 4=25-36 months.
Results: The prevalence of SRNC was 32.8% in the overall group; it was most common in Group-1 and Group-2. Of the families of children with SRNC, 43.4% described it as a “problem.” SRNC was significantly lower among pacifier users in Group-1, children who wore pajamas in Group-2, and children who bedshared with parents in Group-3.
Conclusion: SRNC is common in early childhood. Concomitant factors change according to the age of the child, and SRNC significantly decreases after two years of age.

Erken Çocukluk Döneminde Uykudan Ağlayarak Uyanma

Öz

Amaç: Erken çocukluk döneminde uykudan geceleri ağlayarak uyanma (SRNC) ile ilgili az sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 3 ila 36 aylık çocuklarda SRNC prevalansını belirlemek ve etkileyen faktörleri araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çocuk Sağlığı İzlem Polikliniğine devam eden 3-36 aylık çocukların ebeveynlerine anket uygulandı. Çocukların sosyodemografik özellikleri ve uyku özellikleri değerlendirildi. Çocuklar dört yaş grubuna ayrıldı; Grup 1= 3-5 ay, Grup 2=6-11 ay, Grup 3=12-24 ay ve Grup 4=25-36 aylık çocuklardan oluşturuldu.
Bulgular: Tüm grupta SRNC prevalansı %32.8 iken, Grup-1 ve Grup-2’de yaygın olduğu görülmüştür. SRNC’li çocuğu olan ailelerin %43.4’ü bunu “sorun” olarak tanımlamıştır. Grup-1’de emzik kullananlarda, Grup-2’de pijama giyenlerde ve Grup-3’te ebeveynleri ile aynı yatağı paylaşan çocuklarda SRNC anlamlı olarak daha düşüktür.
Sonuç: SRNC erken çocukluk döneminde sık görülebilmektedir. Eşlik eden faktörler çocuğun yaşına göre değişmekte ve SRNC iki yaşından sonra önemli ölçüde azalmaktadır.
