Sleep apnea, toddlers who sleep on their backs suffer more respiratory problems (558 words)
Kevin D. Pereira, M.D., professor of otolaryngology at the UT Medical School and chief pediatric otolaryngologist at Memorial Hermann Children's Hospital, evaluated the association between body position and OSAS events during sleep in toddlers up to age three.
Pereira, lead author of the study, urges physicians who use PSG in order to diagnose and manage sleep disorders in children to take into consideration the variables that may affect the validity of the results.
Pereira also notes that the study was not conducted on infants, so this study's findings shouldn't be confused with the practice of having infants sleep on their sides or back to help avoid Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
