Journal ArticleDOI
Pediatric sleep questionnaire (PSQ): validity and reliability of scales for sleep-disordered breathing, snoring, sleepiness, and behavioral problems.
TL;DR: These scales for childhood SRBDs, snoring, sleepiness, and behavior are valid and reliable instruments that can be used to identifySRBDs or associated symptom-constructs in clinical research when polysomnography is not feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Symptoms of sleep disorders, inattention, and hyperactivity in children
TL;DR: The data suggest that 81% of habitually snoring children who have ADHD--25% of all children with ADHD--could have their ADHD eliminated if their habitual snoring and any associated SRBD were effectively treated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inattention, hyperactivity, and symptoms of sleep-disordered breathing.
Ronald D. Chervin,Kristen Hedger Archbold,James E. Dillon,Parviz Panahi,Kenneth Pituch,Ronald E. Dahl,Christian Guilleminault +6 more
TL;DR: Inattention and hyperactivity among general pediatric patients are associated with increased daytime sleepiness and---especially in young boys---snoring and other symptoms of SDB, and the current results suggest a major public health impact.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep-disordered breathing, behavior, and cognition in children before and after adenotonsillectomy.
Ronald D. Chervin,Deborah L. Ruzicka,Bruno Giordani,Robert A. Weatherly,James E. Dillon,Elise K. Hodges,Carole L. Marcus,Kenneth E. Guire +7 more
TL;DR: Polysomnographic assessment of baseline SDB and its subsequent amelioration did not clearly predict either baseline neurobehavioral morbidity or improvement in any area other than sleepiness, suggesting the need for better measures or improved understanding of underlying causal mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire: Prediction of Sleep Apnea and Outcomes
Ronald D. Chervin,Robert A. Weatherly,Susan L. Garetz,Deborah L. Ruzicka,Bruno Giordani,Elise K. Hodges,James E. Dillon,Kenneth E. Guire +7 more
TL;DR: The SRBD scale may predict OSA-related neurobehavioral morbidity and its response to adenotonsillectomy as well or better than does polysomnography.
