  • Title: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome: differences between children and adults.
    Author: Marcus CL.
    Journal: Sleep; 2000 Jun 15; 23 Suppl 4():S140-1. PubMed ID: 10893088.
    Abstract:
    The obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a common cause of morbidity in childhood. The clinical presentation, pathophysiology, polysomnographic characteristics and treatment differ between children and adults. Measurements of the upper airway pressure-flow characteristics can be useful in evaluating upper airway function in patients with OSAS as well as the normal population.
