Abstract

Objectives: .The severity of sleep apneas largely depends on abnormal size of upper airway. Therefore, nasalexamination is essential part of clinical evaluation of children with sleep-disordered breathing.Methods: We performed a retrospective survey involving children aged 4 years and older which underwentin-laboratory overnight cardiorespiratory polygraph study between January 2016 and May 2017. Nasalobstruction test was used to score severity.Results: Fifty-three children (62% males) with a median age of 6.1 (IQR 3.1) years were enrolled in this study.Linear regression analysis showed that nasal obstruction score was correlated with apnea-hypopnea index (β= 0.345; p < 0.014) and oxygen desaturation index (β = 0.328; p < 0.022), whilst no association was foundwith age, BMI z-score, snoring and phase angle. Correlation analysis also showed that nasal obstruction scorewas correlated with apnea-hypopnea index (r = 0.364; p = 0.009) and oxygen desaturation index (r = 0.350; p= 0.012) after adjustment for age and BMI z-score., but not with snoring time or phase angle degree.Conclusions: Nasal obstruction test may be a useful, time saving assessment which aid exploring sleepdisordered breathing in children. However, this test should not be used alone because it is plagued by objectiveconsideration and at risk of under or overestimation.
