- Brachial plexus birth palsy injury
- Cerebral palsy and related conditions
- Chronic headaches

Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood and Epilepsy
Our clinic is one of only a handful in the region with the expertise, advanced care, and specialists required to treat children with alternating hemiplegia of childhood and epilepsy.
Pediatric Sleep Lab
Housed within Duke University Hospital, our pediatric sleep lab is equipped to evaluate children with known or suspected sleep disorders. Our sleep lab is accredited by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, which recognizes our commitment to high-quality patient care and adherence to strict standards.
What to Expect
During a sleep study, your child -- along with a parent or guardian -- will stay overnight in one of our clinical sleep lab rooms. While your child is asleep, we will monitor their body functions, including sleep stages, eye movements, brain waves, muscle activity, breathing, body positions, and heartbeat. Along with a separate bed for the parent or guardian, we provide cribs or beds with side rails according to what’s appropriate for your child’s age.
Making Your Child Comfortable
Our sleep lab rooms are equipped with televisions to help your child relax and get used to the environment. We encourage you to bring security items from home like blankets or stuffed animals to help your child feel at ease.
