Obstructive Sleep Apnea with a child?

by Mullins
(London)

My daughter is 3 March for the past 8 months is waking overnight snorting and angry. Occasionally, however, to sleep at night, but not very often. My doctor of ENT daughters sleep study was reported, the text is kind of a large but tonsils ok? but the doctor believes that perhaps this should raise the nose, depending on the study.

I was wondering why this sleep through is sometimes Sleep Apnea may be?

It was also a baby prem was cpap for 2 weeks and was told as a baby had a larynx could this be connected? also has demonstrated a real frustration during the day and even during the night of dumps feet and gets really worked that I really do not snore, but it is a heavy separator.

Amy thanks


You can describe symptoms that may be associated with Sleep Apnea in children. And Sleep Apnea symptoms in infants and children is a little different than the symptoms in adults.

Why you need to know the difference between harmless snoring and sleep more serious problem. You can override the former, but you must handle the latter.

The only way to verify whether it is snoring or sleep apnoea is for measuring oxygen levels during sleep with a simple apparatus-portable oximeter-snugs in finger or toe of a person. However, only a sleep laboratory to do this reliably.

Thus, the greatest concern for your daughter is that of providing oxygen drops unhealthy levels.

You Said:

waking everynight snorting and angry
has emerged frustration a day
night dumps feet and really rise
is a heavy separator

Well, if your daughter carries around a overpartied teen, acting Moody, irritable, it may be a sign of sleep apnea.

Also, curious percentage of children diagnosed with hyperactivity and attention deficit disorder actually Sleep Apnea. So if your daughter appears hyperactive and sleep deficiencies or snoring, sleep apnea consider as the source.

Another symptom is slowed down development, when sleep apnea actually may slow a toddler or development of children and leave the smaller than it was. This effect takes years to notice, so I'm glad that going along with a study of sleep and don't expect to see this effect.

Best of luck!
