The contributions of nocturnal hypoxaemia and sleep disturbances to acute mountain sickness
Abstract Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is common after ascent to altitude, yet individual susceptibility remains difficult to predict and diagnosis relies on subjective report. Sleep disturbances and nocturnal hypoxaemia at altitude may provide insight, but their relationship to AMS is incompletely understood.

Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the randomised crossover study investigating the effects of nocturnal periodic breathing (nPB) on sympathetic activity and ventilatory acclimatisation in hypobaric hypoxia equivalent to 4000 m altitude. Participants completed two 3‐day sojourns where nPB was inhibited by increasing inspiratory CO2 fraction ...

Identifying High‐Risk Children Safe for Same‐Day Discharge After Tonsillectomy
ABSTRACT Objective Current guidelines recommend overnight admission for children with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity undergoing tonsillectomy, although most have uneventful postoperative courses. We aimed to identify low‐risk subgroups within this high‐risk population who may be candidates for same‐day discharge. Methods Retrospective

Utility of Preoperative Cardiac Workup for Children With Very Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea
In this retrospective study, we aimed to examine the prevalence and utility of obtaining a preoperative cardiac workup in children with very severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) prior to adenotonsillectomy. Of 144 patients with very severe OSA, 38 patients (26.4%) underwent a preoperative cardiac workup, and three of those 38 had abnormal findings ...
