Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Phase 1: standard of care
10 children will be enrolled in the first phase related to determining if using actigraphy and timed saliva melatonin samples can be a feasible way to measure the sleep and circadian rhythm of critically ill children aged 3 to 6 years old while they receive routine critical care.
No interventions assigned to this group
Phase 2: Daytime light exposure
10 children will undergo the same sleep monitoring and salivary melatonin sampling as phase 1 while receiving timed exposure to a light box of 10,000 lux within 3 feet of their hospital bed for PICU days #2, 3 and 4.
Daytime light exposure
Participants will be exposed to a 10,000 lux light source within 3 feet of their face/eyes to promote the natural circadian rhythm for 2-3 hours from 10am to 12/1pm depending on their nap time at home
Phase 3: Daytime restricted feeding
10 children will undergo the same sleep monitoring and salivary melatonin sampling as phase 1 while attempting to limit all nutrition (parental or enteral) to being provided during the normal hours that the child is awake at home on PICU days #2, 3, 4.
Daytime restricted feeding
Participant's nutrition, parenteral or enteral, will be restricted to the hours when they are normally awake at home.
