Activity: On the eve of World Sleep Day 2021 We have initiated Pediatric Sleep Apnoea public awareness campaign post https://youtu.be/74VcX__ZtEs What are the symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea in a child? Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea is a sleep disorder in which your child’s breathing is partially or completely blocked repeatedly during sleep. The condition is due to narrowing or blockage of the upper airway during sleep. There are differences between pediatric obstructive sleep apnea and adult sleep apnea. While adults usually have daytime sleepiness, children are more likely to have behavioral problems. The underlying cause in adults is often obesity, while in children the most common underlying condition is enlargement of the adenoids and tonsils. Early diagnosis and treatment are important to prevent complications that can affect children’s growth, cognitive development and behavior.
