Continuous positive airway pressure for obstructive sleep apnea in children
Copyright© the College of Family Physicians of Canada..
QUESTION: A 12-year-old child underwent adenotonsillectomy for treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) but continues to snore at night and struggles with attentiveness at school. The child's parent uses a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine at night and wonders whether the same therapy could be used in children.
ANSWER: Unlike in adults, pediatric OSA is commonly related to adenotonsillar hypertrophy and is often amenable to treatment with adenotonsillectomy. As an alternative to surgery or in cases of postsurgical persistence of OSA, CPAP has shown effectiveness in improving both polysomnographic parameters and daytime neurobehavioural symptoms in children with OSA. Adherence to CPAP therapy is a challenge in children and requires parental education and special considerations such as a mask acclimatization period.
