Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
A standardised questionnaire combined with clinical examination and ENT-examination (The Sleep Clinical Record) will be used to assess the clinical signs of possible respiratory problems. Respiratory problems are assessed with a polysomnography. The outcome measurements of the polysomnography will be described by the Obstructive Apnea Hypopnea Index (OAHI) and the Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI). An OAHI of 1-4 events/hour (mild), OAHI of 5-10 (moderate) and an OAHI of > 10 (severe) will be used to describe the severity of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The relation between SDB and symptoms of respiratory distress during the day will be assessed by evaluating clinical records and by specific questions focussing on respiratory distress. The Sleep Clinical Record, Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) and Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire (BISQ) will be used to assess the clinical signs of respiratory problems and possible SDB. If the Sleep Clinical Record results in a score of higher than 6.5, the child is considered to be at risk for SDB. The Infant Toddler Quality of Life questionnaire (ITQoL), the Child Health Questionnaire (CHQ) and the 36- and 12-item Short Form Survey (SF-36 and SF-12) will be used to assess quality of life. The OSA-18 and OSA-12 questionnaires will be used to assess obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) related quality of life. The growth of the mandible will be assessed using three-dimensional stereophotogrammetry. The outcomes of the anthropometric measurements will be noted in centimetres and standard deviation (head circumference and length) and kilograms and standard deviation (weight). These outcomes will be compared to Dutch reference growth charts for children (Growth Analyzer).
