Brief summary

The purpose of the study is: 1) To assess the feasibility of unmonitored polysomnography and 2) to compare apnea hypopnea index (AHI), average SPO2, and SPO2 nadir between unmonitored polysomnography and in-laboratory polysomnography in pediatric patients.

Detailed description

The purpose of the study proposed is twofold. First Investigators will test the feasibility of conducting portable sleep monitoring in school aged children using the Clevemed Sleepview (www.clevelmed.com), one of the smallest portable sleep monitors commercially available at 57 grams. Second, Investigators will perform a direct comparison between the results obtained with this portable sleep monitor and those obtained from a standard-of-care in-laboratory attended sleep study performed at the St. Louis Children's Hospital Pediatric Sleep Center. These comparisons will be offered to the participants suspected of having sleep disordered breathing who present to the Washington University Pediatric Otolaryngology Department. Investigators will obtain the medical history and medications and results of the sleep study done at SLCH sleep lab from the medical record for research purposes.

Interventions

Type III at home portable monitor obtaining greater than or equal to 6 hours of data adequate for polysomnography analysis

Polysomnography testing will determine the sleep stages, apnea hypopnea index (AHI), blood saturation oxygen nadir (SPO2 nadir), and average blood oxygen saturation. A McGill Oximetry Score will also be calculated for the in-laboratory PSG.

In Lab Polysomnography
All eligible subjects will have in-laboratory polysomnography as is routinely performed in the diagnostic work up for suspected sleep disordered breathing. The in-laboratory sleep study will be done at the St. Louis Children's Hospital Pediatric Sleep Center, which is an American Academy of Sleep Medicine accredited sleep disorder center. The Center is sound-proof, and has been designed to provide as natural and home-like an atmosphere as possible. Infrared monitoring equipment allows for patient observation from outside of the patient's sleep room. At least one parent is required to stay in the room overnight with the patient. A second parent can stay as well, but not required. The Center is located inside of St. Louis Children's Hospital within an inpatient medical unit, which is staffed with physicians and nurses 24 hours per day
