- Sleep positioning systems are often prescribed as part of a 24-hour postural management programme. for children and adults with neurodisabilities. A review of the literature identified 14 studies of sleep positioning systems. All were small and most were of low quality. While no harm was found, inferences of benefits cannot be made from the literature.
