The 14th European Narcolepsy Days (END) conference took place in November 2023 in
Leiden, the Netherlands, with a wide range of participants: researchers; neurologists and other health care professionals; representatives from the pharmaceutical industry; patients with narcolepsy and idiopathic hypersomnia (IH); their relatives and parents of children with narcolepsy.
During a patient session organised by eNAP (European Narcolepsy Alliance for Patients), the participants discussed the challenges faced by people with narcolepsy/IH at different stages of life. In addition to the participants from the conference, several Dutch narcolepsy patients and parents of children with the disease also contributed. They were divided into 10 groups, with two groups in each of the five subjects: newly diagnosed; parents of children; teenagers; young adults and adults.
