Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Level of baseline PSQ | Baseline | Level of baseline PSQ of children who are referred to surgery. A level of \>33% yes i.e. 8/22 indicates medium to severe OSA and less than five yes indicates a healthy status. Minimum is 0 yes and maximum is 22 where 22 is the most severe disease. PSQ has a score from 0 to 22 where every yes on the scale is one point. A level of 8 yes (\>33%) indicates moderate to severe OSDB and less than five indicates no OSDB. |
| Changes of baseline PSQ after treatment | 6 months to 12 months | Changes of baseline PSQ with 6 months follow-up, after treatment/surgery |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PSQ vs OSA-18 | 6 months | Compare PSQ-levels with OSA-18 levels OSA-18 is accounted as a scale from 18 to 126 points where a higher rate is a more severe disease. Score less than 60 suggests a mild impact on quality of life. Scores between 60 and 80 a moderate impact and a score higher than 80 severe impact. OSA-18 has a summary of 18 - 126 points where a higher level indicates worse quality of life. A score less than 60 indicates a mild impact on quality of life and score between 60 and 80 indicates moderate impact whereas a score above 80 indicates a high impact. |
| PSQ vs. PSG | 6 months | PSQ-levels compared to Polysomnography outcomes |
| PSQ levels of healthy controls vs children with OSDB | 6 months | Compare the PSQ-levels of children with OSDB-symptoms to children without OSDB-symptoms |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 5 and 10 years follow-up | 11 years | PSQ and OSA-18 compared to baseline and after 6months compared to levels at 5 and 10 years follow-up |
