- Background: Childhood obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is characterized by episodic upper airway obstruction that occurs during sleep. In contrast to simple snoring, OSA is accompanied by varying degrees of oxygen desaturation, hypercarbia, autonomic stimulation, and sleep fragmentation. Sleep disruption leaves some children with daytime somnolence, difficulty waking in the morning, and disturbed concentration. Other children develop paradoxical hyperactivity during the day rather than hypersomnolence; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder may be diagnosed. Common symptoms include restless sleep and loud nightly snoring, sometimes with audible pauses followed by gasping or snorting. ...
- Pathophysiology: Disordered breathing during sleep is a hallmark of OSA syndrome. ... In contrast to adults, children with OSA often exhibit a pattern of obstructive hypoventilation or partial airway obstruction leading to hypoxemia and hypercarbia. ...
- With sleep, an increased resistance to airflow normally accompanies muscular relaxation of these muscle groups. Although most people compensate for these changes, individuals with certain anatomic problems have repeated episodes of partial or complete upper airway obstruction when they sleep. ...
- Using this definition, most healthy adults have some degree of sleep-related disordered breathing. ... The apnea index is an average of the number of apneas occurring per hour during sleep. ... Healthy children have fewer episodes of sleep disordered breathing than adults, and adult criteria is inadequate for diagnosing OSA in a significant percentage of affected children. Most pediatric sleep centers view apneas or hypopneas that occur more than once per hour as abnormal. ...

Also unclear is a possible pathogenetic relationship between disturbed sleep and the core symptoms of ADHD. There are still very few findings on the role of comorbid internal and neurological disorders like sleep apnea and restless legs syndrome in the differential diagnosis of ADHD. METHODS: We present an overview of the current literature, describing the most important results concerning sleep disorders in ADHD. RESULTS: A principal goal of future assessments is to ascertain whether sleep problems in children with ADHD represent unspecific concurrent symptoms or whether they play a substantial role in the pathogenesis of ADHD. CONCLUSIONS: Moreover a possibly increased risk of comorbid sleep-disordered breathing disorder might be an important issue in the differential diagnostic considerations with regard to ADHD.
- Symptoms of sleep-disordered breathing in 5-year-old children are associated with sleepiness and problem behaviors.
- OBJECTIVE: Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in children is reportedly associated with problem behaviors suggestive of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder; however, there are few data on the relation of SDB to problem behaviors in the general pediatric population. The goal of this study was to assess the prevalence of SDB symptoms in 5-year-old children and their relation to sleepiness and problem behaviors. METHODS: A population-based, cross-sectional survey was conducted of a birth cohort of children who were born in eastern Massachusetts. Subjects were 3019 5-year-old children (1551 boys, 1468 girls) who were enrolled in the Infant Care Practices Study and whose mothers were contacted within 3 months of their child's fifth birthday. ... SDB was defined as frequent or loud snoring; trouble breathing or loud, noisy breathing during sleep; or witnessed sleep apnea. ... SDB symptoms were present in 744 (25%) children. Compared with children without snoring or other symptoms of SDB, children with SDB symptoms were significantly more likely to have parent-reported daytime sleepiness (odds ratio OR : 2. ... CONCLUSIONS: SDB symptoms are common in 5-year-old children and are associated with an increased risk of daytime sleepiness and with problem behaviors suggestive of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
