Postoperatively, mean total RDI improved to 3 (P < 0.001), mean REM RDI to 7.4 (P < 0.001), and 4 remained severe. Overall 22 (65%) showed REM RDI in the normal range (<5), including all with a preoperative REM RDI less than 30. Conclusion: On PSG criteria, most children with OSA significantly improved after adenotonsillectomy, but a number had persisting abnormalities. Postoperative PSG should be considered to identify unresolved OSA.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:47:00 AEDT ]]> Clinical and lung function outcomes in a cohort of children with severe asthma https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37978 Fri 16 Jul 2021 18:14:37 AEST ]]> Polysomnography for the management of oxygen supplementation therapy in infants with chronic lung disease of prematurity https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49421 p < .001) and was not different from control infants (2.0, range 0–3.9; p = .31). AHI on room air at the last PSG when home oxygen was ceased was 4.1 per hour (range 0–13.8) slightly higher than in healthy infants. Conclusion: Central sleep disordered breathing in infants with BPD dramatically normalizes with low flow nasal cannula home oxygen therapy and improves with age. Mild central sleep disordered breathing remains detectable, although much improved, when compared with healthy infants at the time when the decision to cease home oxygen therapy was made by the physician.]]> Fri 12 May 2023 15:02:40 AEST ]]>
