Resumen en español Objetivo Comparar la frecuencia de trastornos del sueño (TS) y disfunción ejecutiva (DE) en niños con trastorno por déficit de atención-hiperactividad (TDA-H) y un grupo control. Método Estudiamos 156 niños con TDA-H con una media de 8,5 años. El grupo control incluyó 111 niños con una media de 8,3 años. Utilizamos la versión traducida del Cuestionario pediátrico del sueño (CPS) para tamizar TS. Para estudiar la DE, usamos la medición de la memoria de trabajo de la escala de inteligencia de Wechsler para niños-IV (WISC-IV). Resultados No encontramos una mayor frecuencia de TS en niños con TDA-H. Sin embargo, encontramos DE y correlaciones entre los diferentes tipos de TDA-H, y entre los TS, DE y de mediciones del WISC-IV. Conclusión No hallamos un incremento en la frecuencia de TS en niños con TDA-H. Encontramos evidencia de DE y correlaciones entre el tipo de TDA-H, TS, DE y medidas del WISC-IV.
Resumen en inglés Objective To compare frequency of sleep disorders (SD) and executive dysfunction (ED) in children with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and a control group. Method We studied 156 children with ADHD with a mean age of 8.5 years, and a control group with 111 children with a mean age of 8.3 years. We utilized the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) to screen SD and the working memory measurement from the Wechsler intelligence scale for children (WISC-IV) to screen ED. Results We did not observe an increased frequency of SD in children with ADHD compared with the controls. However, we did identify ED in children with ADHD; additionally a significant correlation was observed between the type of ADHD and SD and among ED, WISC-IV measurements, and type of SD in children with ADHD. Conclusion An increase of SD frequency in children with ADHD was not observed, but we did identify ED in children with ADHD. Additionally, a correlation among ADHD types, SD, ED, and WISC-IV measurements was observed in children with ADHD.
