Abstract
This article is a report of a project to improve the quality and duration of sleep among patients ages 3-17 years in an outpatient mental health clinic. The Pediatric Insomnia Severity Index (PISI) (now the Behavioral Sleep Medicine Clinic Sleep Questionnaire) was administered at baseline. Patients and parents were provided with education about the American Academy of Pediatrics sleep tips. Compliance with the sleep tips was tracked using an electronic health record (EHR) checklist. The PISI was administered again after the interventions and showed overall improvement in sleep quality and duration. Some patients experienced no change or a decline in sleep quality or duration and some had an increase in daytime somnolence.
