eyes closed night.
 Asynchronized fast EEG activity entire brain and
eyes open day.


Outcome
 % subjects gained “insight”

None gained “insight” after first 90 tasks

1 hr learning session -> 12 hr break -> 1 hr
testing session
 Group 1 – Slept 3 hrs

Outcome
 Improvement in speed of correct answer
 Decrease in milliseconds

Input of data daytime
 -> Storing as new synapses or strengthening of
synapses
 -> increased space and energy demand of brain

Input of data daytime
 -> Storing as new synapses or strengthening of
synapses
 -> increased space and energy demand of brain
 If not interrupted
▪ -> exhaustion of energy/space
▪ No capacity for new memory

Brain taken “off line” during sleep
 Synapses eliminated
 Selective weakening/strengthening synapses

Sleep loss may have several consequences


Affects 2-4 % of children
Related to
 Tonsillar/adenoidal hypertrophy
 Obesity

Pathophysiology
 Repetitive complete (apnea) or partial (hypopnea)
upper airway obstructions during sleep resulting
in arousals and/or desaturations.

AHI
 Apneas + Hypopneas per hour of sleep
▪ <2 normal
▪ 2-5 mild OSA
▪ 5-15 moderate OSA
▪ >15 severe OSA

Symptoms
 Respiratory
▪ Snoring
▪ Choking
▪ Apneas

Symptoms
 Neurocognitive
▪ Sleepiness
▪ Inattentiveness
▪ Poor academic performance

Symptoms
 Hormonal
▪ Nocturia
▪ Obesity?

History
 Focus on nighttime respiratory symptoms and
daytime neurocognitive impairment

Work up
 In lab, attended polysomnogram gold standard

Treatment
 T&A
▪ Medical treatment for mild or residual OSA
▪ Positive airway pressure therapy
▪ Mandibular advancement device
▪ Maxillary expanders
▪ Weight loss

8 y.o boy
 Snoring
 Choking in sleep

8 y.o boy
 AHI 6.5
 Recommended T&A

Snoring -> Upper airways resistance
syndrome -> Hypopneas -> Obstructive
apneas (OSA)

Snoring -> Upper airways resistance
syndrome -> Hypopneas -> Obstructive
apneas (OSA)
Snoring in itself has health implications

Compared to non snoring children
 Snoring children perform worse on measures of:
▪ Attention span
▪ Social problems
▪ Overall cognitive abilities
▪ Visuospatial functions
 O’brien et al. Pediatrics 2004
 Guilleminault. Eur. J. Pediatrics 1982
 Kennedy. Ped. Pulm 2004

Neurocognitive effects
 Snoring at age 2 to 6 is associated with worse
academic performance at age 13 to 14.

297 1st grader with lowest 10th grade
percentile surveyed for OSA
All underwent sleep study

Prevalence
 54 (18%) had OSA
▪ 24 elected to have T&A
▪ 30 elected not to have T&A
 66 had primary snoring
 177 had normal breathing

Grades 1 year later compared
 OSA and T&A group
 OSA no T&A group
 Primary snoring
 Normal controls

Associated with
 Increased risk of cardiovascular events
 Strong association with Diabetes Mellitus II
 Increased risk of MVH
 Endothelial dysfunction (peds)
 Autonomic dysregulation (peds)
