Identification of sleep apnea events using discrete wavelet transform of respiration, ECG and accelerometer signals [PDF]
Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder in which patient sleep patterns are disrupted due to recurrent pauses in breathing or by instances of abnormally low breathing. Current gold standard tests for the detection of apnea events are costly and have the

Pathophysiology of Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea [PDF]
Abstract Sleep-disordered breathing is a common and serious cause of metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurocognitive morbidity in children. The spectrum of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing ranges from habitual snoring to partial or complete airway obstruction, termed obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Epidemiology of Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea [PDF]
Abstract Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has become widely recognized only in the last few decades as a likely cause of significant morbidity among children. Many of the clinical characteristics of pediatric OSA, and the determinants of its epidemiology, differ from those of adult OSA. We systematically reviewed studies on the

Trends in Diagnosing Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Pediatrics [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea in children has been linked with behavioral and neurocognitive problems, impaired growth, cardiovascular morbidity, and metabolic consequences. Diagnosing children at a young age can potentially prevent significant morbidity associated with OSA.

PEDIATRIC OSAS TREATED WITH ADENOIDECTOMY: A COHORT STUDY CONDUCTED AT THE UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL OF PALERMO, ITALY [PDF]
The incidence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) in the pediatric population is about 2%. The diagnosis is based on the employment of questionnaires, and polysomnography (PSG) that is the gold standard also among children.

A comparative study of four novel sleep apnoea episode prediction systems [PDF]
The prediction of sleep apnoea and hypopnoea episodes could allow treatment to be applied before the event be-comes detrimental to the patients sleep, and for a more spe-cific form of treatment.
