Brief summary

The use of respiratory polygraphy (RP) in children for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) can be challenging: device acceptance, sensors displacement. The automatic analysis of respiratory events has never been evaluated in a pediatric population. The primary objective of this study was to determine the feasibility of pediatric RP in an ENT department routine practice. The second objective was to evaluate the reliability of the automatic signal analysis in children.

Detailed description

Retrospective single center study of 50 children (32 boys and 18 girls, mean age 5.5 ± 2.3 years) who benefited from an overnight RP in an ENT hospitalization department between January and August 2016 for OSAS suspicion. Manual detection of respiratory events was performed by the same ENT specialist, and compared to the automatic analysis.
