Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Current Management

ORL, 2007
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a condition frequently encountered in children, and belongs to a spectrum of diseases called sleep-disordered breathing. Its pathophysiology is related to decreased ventilation despite respiratory effort, leading to episodes of hypopnea and apnea.

Complications of Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1990
Obstructive apnea, especially OSA, is a common problem in pediatric practice. In young infants, craniofacial anomalies may be the most common contributor to OSA. Complications include failure to thrive, metabolic alkalosis, and respiratory distress which can be life-threatening.

Socioeconomic inequalities in pediatric obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, 2022
To examine the association between multiple measures of socioeconomic status (SES) and objectively measured obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in a Canadian pediatric population.This was a cross-sectional study of 188 children (4-17 years, mean age 9.3 ± 3.5 years) prospectively recruited from two hospital sleep clinics in Canada, using multivariable ...

Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1995
Educational objectives: To understand the pathophysiology and different etiologies of pediatric OSAS and then make useful treatment decisions; to recognize the utility and indications of polysomnography and the clinical and therapeutic differences between adult and pediatric cases.

What’s New in Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea?

Sleep Medicine Clinics, 2023
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common children. There is a demand for more family-focused evaluation and novel diagnostic approaches. Drug-induced sleep endoscopy is increasingly being used clinically in children with Down syndrome and other comorbidities.

Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea

2008
A computerized Ovid search of MEDLINE from 1966 to September 2005 was performed. The term “obstructive sleep apnea” was searched and the resulting articles were cross-referenced with those obtained by exploding “tonsillectomy” or “adenoidectomy.” The results were cross-referenced with the phrases “sleep study or respiratory distress index,” or ...

Missing teeth and pediatric obstructive sleep apnea

Sleep and Breathing, 2015
Missing teeth in early childhood can result in abnormal facial morphology with narrow upper airway. The potential association between dental agenesis or early dental extractions and the presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was investigated.We reviewed clinical data, results of polysomnographic sleep studies, and orthodontic imaging studies of ...

Clinical Assessment of Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Pediatrics, 2004
Objective. To determine whether children with a clinical assessment suggestive of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) but with negative polysomnography (PSG) have improvement in their clinical assessment score after tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy (T&A) as compared with similar children who do not undergo surgery.Methods.

Neuropsychological effects of pediatric obstructive sleep apnea

Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, 2004
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a fairly common nocturnal breathing disorder, affecting 2–4% of individuals. Although OSA is associated with medical morbidity, its most functionally disruptive effects in adults appear to be neuropsychological in nature. Research on the neuropsychological effects of pediatric OSA has been limited.

Neurostimulation for Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America
Up to 80% of children with Down syndrome (DS) are affected by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and only 16% to 30% will have resolution of their OSA with adenotonsillectomy. Hypoglossal nerve stimulation is a well-established therapy for adults with OSA and was recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in children with DS and residual
