Reliability of Home Respiratory Polygraphy for the Diagnosis of Sleep Apnea in Children

TL;DR: HRP recordings emerge as a potentially useful and reliable approach for the diagnosis of OSAS in children, however, more research is required for the diagnoses of mild OSAS using HRP in children.

Pediatric OSAS: Oximetry can provide answers when polysomnography is not available.

TL;DR: Nocturnal oximetry emerges as a valuable tool that can facilitate treatment decisions when polysomnography is not available and can predict responses to treatment interventions for OSAS and potential complications.

Clinically important age-related differences in sleep related disordered breathing in infants and children with Prader-Willi Syndrome.

TL;DR: CentralSleep apnea with associated oxygen desaturations is more prevalent in infants compared with older children with Prader-Willi Syndrome and treatment with oxygen for central sleep apnea should be considered.

Meta-Analysis of Quantitative Sleep Parameters From Childhood to Old Age in Healthy Individuals: Developing Normative Sleep Values Across the Human Lifespan

TL;DR: In adults, it appeared that sleep latency, percentages of stage 1 and stage 2 significantly increased with age while percentage of REM sleep decreased, and effect sizes for the different sleep parameters were greatly modified by the quality of subject screening, diminishing or even masking age associations with differentSleep parameters.

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.

The Sleep Disturbance Scale for Children (SDSC) Construct ion and validation of an instrument to evaluate sleep disturbances in childhood and adolescence

TL;DR: The correlation between factor scores corroborated the hypothesis that childhood sleep disturbances are not independent entities nor do they cluster into different groupings related to each other and appears to be a useful tool in evaluating the sleep disturbances of school‐age children in clinical and non‐clinical populations.
