Findings of the current study suggest youth with IBD experience poor sleep quality, which is significantly related to the pain they experience. Consequently, healthcare providers should screen for and address sleep quality to optimize outcomes in their pediatric patients. Objectively assessing sleep patterns (e.g., actigraphy) may prove useful for pediatric IBD samples; however, additional research is needed to determine actigraphy's feasibility and efficacy in assessing sleep patterns in real world settings (e.g., pediatric medical clinics).
