PURPOSE: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a common sleep-related breathing disorder affecting children. This study aims to characterize factors associated with the development and progression of severe forms of paediatric OSA.
METHODS: This study included children admitted to Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, a tertiary children's hospital in southwest China between January 2020 and December 2020 with a discharge diagnosis of OSA. Each patient underwent polysomnography examination, following assessments of apnoea-hypopnea index (AHI) and lowest oxygen saturation (LSaO2) by standardized techniques. Demographic and clinical information was collected from the hospital's electronic medical records. Associations between OSA severity and various factors were first examined in a univariate logistic model, with subsequent multivariate analysis to further identify independent risk factors.
RESULTS: A total of 263 children were identified during the study period. Among patients presenting with OSA, 51.3% had mild and 48.7% had moderate to severe symptoms according to standardized guidelines. The incidence of mild and moderate to severe hypoxemia in our population was 39.2% and 60.8%, respectively. Allergic rhinitis (AR; adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.75, 95% CI 1.03-2.96) and male gender (aOR = 1.77, 95% CI 1.03-3.06) were significantly associated with moderate-to-severe OSA (all P-values < 0.05) after adjustment for covariates. AR was also the only significant predictor of hypoxemia (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that male gender and presence of AR may be associated with an increased likelihood of moderate-to-severe OSA in children. These findings underscore the importance of timely intervention and individualized management for at-risk individuals.
