Abstract Details

Demographics and Disease Characteristics Among Pediatric Patients With Narcolepsy
Sleep
P9 - Poster Session 9 (5:00 PM-6:00 PM)
14-008
To better understand the subtype prevalence, time to diagnosis, and medication use of pediatric patients with narcolepsy.
Narcolepsy is a chronic disorder with symptom onset frequently occurring between age 10-25 years. Clinical and demographic information is lacking in pediatric patients with narcolepsy. 
A retrospective review of registry data of patients aged ≤18 years with a diagnosis of narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) or 2 (NT2) from 22 US hospitals between 2009-2017 were assessed. All patients included in the analysis had undergone a clinical evaluation, an overnight polysomnographic study, and a Multiple Sleep Latency Test. Data were analyzed descriptively.
In total, 471 pediatric patients were identified in the dataset (NT1, 70.3%; NT2, 29.5%; unknown, 0.2%; female, 47.6%; white, 48.2%; black, 41.2%; non-Hispanic, 89.4%). The most common reported Tanner stage score classifications were stage 1 (n=79 [16.8%]) and stage 5 (n=55 [11.7%]; not available, n=235 [48.9%]). The median (IQR) ages at the onset of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and at diagnosis were 9.0 (6.9-12.5) years and 12.0 (8.5-15.0) years, respectively. Mean (SD) Epworth Sleepiness Scale for Children and Adolescents (ESS-CHAD) scores in patients before treatment were 17.8 [4.5]. Over half of the patients reported restless sleeping (62.6%), sleep maintenance problems (58.4%), sleep talking (57.3%), and snoring (54.4%). The most reported comorbidity was excessive weight gain (48.4%). Prior treatments included stimulants (87.9%), wake-promoting agents (69.4%), and antidepressants (50.7%); 30.6% had tried sodium oxybate.
In this dataset, most patients reported a delay of ~3 years from symptom onset to narcolepsy diagnosis, with NT1 being a more prevalent diagnosis than NT2, and a wide range of pubertal developmental stages at diagnosis was observed. ESS-CHAD scores reflected substantial levels of EDS; sleep-related symptoms were also common in these patients. These findings emphasize the need for timely diagnosis and access to effective treatments for these patients.
