Non-PRO English to Italian Medical Medical (general)

Since narcolepsy is a genetic disorder, parents should be the ones to detect any symptoms that develop in their children. The first problem is lack of knowledge about all disorders of excessive daytime sleepiness and difficulty in getting a correct diagnosis. The second is that families are largely unaware that disorders of EDS are inheritable. Thirdly, even if someone has been diagnosed with narcolepsy or some other EDS disorder, they frequently fail to contact other family members to inform them of the potential for others having or developing some form of EDS. Consequently, families don’t know to be “on the lookout” for signs in their children.
