What Is Pediatric Sleep Apnea?
Pediatric Sleep-Disordered Breathing, also known as pediatric sleep apnea, affects how kids breathe while they sleep. It happens when something blocks their airway, usually due to enlarged tonsils or adenoids (those soft throat tissues). This can lead to problems like:
- Loud Snoring: Many kids with this condition snore loudly.
- Choking or Gasping: Sometimes, they may seem like they're choking or gasping for air in their sleep.
- Restless Nights: They might wake up often and have trouble sleeping well.
- Feeling Tired: Poor sleep can make them feel tired during the day.
- Behavior Issues (ADHD): It can also affect their behavior, making them cranky or having trouble focusing.
- Bed wetting: Sleep problems contribute to children wetting the bed.
- Teeth Grinding Bruxism:
Dr. Hanam-Jahr can help diagnose and treat these issue, offering a better future for your child's sleep and overall well-being.
Causes of Pediatric Sleep-Disordered Breathing
You might be wondering what causes Pediatric Sleep-Disordered Breathing in the first place. The main signs & symptoms are often enlarged tonsils and adenoids, those soft tissues at the back of the throat. When these tissues grow too big, they can block the airway, making it hard for your child to breathe freely during sleep. But there can be other reasons too, such as:
- Obesity: Sometimes, carrying extra weight can contribute to this condition.
- Chronic Allergies: Allergies can lead to nasal congestion, which can affect breathing during sleep.
- Swollen Tonsils: Swollen tonsils can be a symptom of sleep apnea, as they can obstruct the airway during sleep.
- Family History: If someone in the family had it, there's a higher chance of your child having it too.
- Narrow Jaw or Face: Some kids have smaller jaw or facial structures, which can make the airway more prone to blockage.
Understanding the causes can help you work with Dr. Hanam-Jahr to find the best solution for your child's sleep issues. It's the first step toward a brighter, well-rested future.
