Assessing outcomes after partial and total tonsillectomy for sleep-disordered breathing in children using Clinical Assessment Score-15
Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..
INTRODUCTION: The Clinical Assessment Score-15 (CAS-15) is an office-based tool for assessing the risk of sleep disordered breathing (SDB), a relatively common condition in the pediatric population. Change in CAS-15 following total tonsillectomy (TT) has been shown to have a large effect size, but it is unclear how it varies following partial intracapsular tonsillectomy (PIT). Thus, the objective of the present study is to evaluate the utility of the CAS-15 score in assessing the effectiveness of PIT and how this compares to change after TT.
MATERIAL METHODS: Children ages 2-18 undergoing PIT (N = 16) or TT (N = 8) with or without adenoidectomy for SDB completed the CAS-15 before surgery and at their post-operative follow-up visit. Changes in CAS-15 score were assessed by paired t-test. The mean difference in CAS-15 change between PIT and TT was evaluated by unpaired t-test for unequal variances. Differences in participant characteristics were determined via unpaired t-test for unequal variances.
RESULTS: Participants undergoing PIT did not differ significantly than those undergoing TT with regard to age, sex, BMI percentile, pre-op CAS-15 score or tonsil size, or admission rates following surgery (p > 0.05). The median follow-up after surgery was 5.2 (PIT) and 4.4 (TT) weeks. CAS-15 score improved significantly following PIT (42.8 ± 12.3 vs. 9.4 ± 5.6, p < 0.0001) and TT (45.5 ± 13.3 vs. 7.9 ± 5.8, p < 0.0002). The decrease in CAS-15 for PIT did not differ from TT (33.3 ± 11.8 vs. 37.6 ± 15.0, p > 0.49).
DISCUSSION: CAS-15 decreases drastically following PIT and TT, indicating significant improvement of SDB symptoms. Because the change in CAS-15 after PIT was similar to TT, PIT may be preferred due to the decreased morbidity of the procedure. Given the cost, time required, inconvenience, and other limitations of overnight polysomnography (PSG), which is the gold standard method of diagnosing SDB, CAS-15 may be a suitable replacement or adjunct for the assessment of SDB following PIT in addition to TT.
