Sleep‐disordered breathing on respiratory polygraphy in neonates with spina bifida

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 59, Issue 11, Page 2829-2838, November 2024.
Abstract Introduction Studies have shown a high prevalence of sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) in children with spina bifida. International standards for regular testing for SDB in this population are lacking.
