Does My Child Have Sleep Apnea Quiz
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Sleep Apnea is a condition in which a person stops breathing while sleeping. It often occurs when anything obstructs or plugs the upper airway. This is known as Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) disrupts sleep and can cause the body's oxygen and carbon dioxide levels to drop or rise.
This might cause children to lose out on getting enough restorative sleep. Obstructive sleep apnea, if left untreated, can impair cognition, behavior, and development and cause cardiac issues.
