The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between dexamethosone (steroid) and children's sleep and fatigue.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Approximately 134 children and adolescents will be enrolled. All children and adolescents will wear a wrist actigraph for two consecutive 5-day study periods. Children and adolescents will have blood drawn 2 times on Day 1 when they are on dexamethosone. Their parents will complete a sleep diary and fatigue questionnaire by telephone on Days 2 and 5 of both study periods.
