Brief summary

The aims of the study is to assess the diagnostic utility of home respiratory polygraphy (HRP) complemented with polysomnography (PSG) in childhood Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAS), as well as its usefulness in the therapeutic decisions. Methods: Children referred with suspected OSAS will be evaluated during one year performing home respiratory polygraphy in all cases. PSG will be chosen in patients with concomitant pathology or according to medical criteria, or complemented with HRP in doubtful cases. Clinical and anthropometric data, severity, technical quality and treatment will be obtained. Patients will be divided in two groups (HRP vs PSG) and compared, and the accuracy from HRP to establish a therapeutic decision it wil calculated. The investigator's hypothesis is that PSG should be recommended only for complex or doubtful cases.
