Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This clinical trial will compare the diagnostic accuracy of type II HSAT with PSG for determining OSA status following treatment with adenotonsillectomy in children

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Many children have residual obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) following adenotonsillectomy, but in-lab polysomnography (PSG), the recommended means of re-evaluating these patients, is resource-intensive and availability is limited. Home sleep apnea testing (HSAT), a similar test performed in the patient's home and used clinically in adults, may offer an alternative means of evaluating the effect of OSA treatment in children and make testing more convenient and widely available.
