Abstract:
Objective:To explore the necessity of monitoring polysomnography (PSG ) in snoring children.Method:The PSG were monitored in 162 children with snoring or apnea.Acording to results of PSG,162 cases were separated into two groups:group obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS) and group primary snoring(PS),monitoring data including:apnea hypopnea index(AHI),snoring index(SI),lowest oxygen saturation(LSaO_2) and time of SaO_2<0.9,all data were undertaked statistical analysis. Result:In all 162 snoring cases,150 cases(92.6%) belong to group OSAHS,12 cases(7.4%) belong to group PS;Differences of data of age,sex and body mass index(BMI) are not significant but that of AHI,SI,LSaO_2 and time of SaO_2<0.9 are significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:It's necessary to monitor PSG in snoring children for early diagnosis and correct treatment to avoid disadvantage of OSAHS.
