Sleep Apnea Children
5 year old Child - Sleep Apnea?
My 5 year old son was recent diagnosed with sleeping apnea and these were the test results:
His SWS was at 19%
AHI 10.5 per hour
REM percentage 16.6%
Arousal's with obstructive respiratory events 19 per hour
SaO2 98%
RERA’s 9 events per hour
Cardiac rhythm normal, no PVC’s or significant leg movement noted.
What exactly is being said on this report? How problematic is it? They think his tonsils are causing the problems.
All they said was that my son was having some problems breathing at night and that needed to go back to the ENT so he could read the report and make a decision. They didn't want to say too much so I didn't know if this was serious or not.
Hello, it seems indeed that the tonsils and maybe the adenoids too needs to be removed, from the data presented here it looks that you son has frequent arousals at night due to the obestruction of the airways but luckily enough these has no effect on the heart or any other system. this is common in children is such an age and it is one of the commonest indications for tonsellectomy. dont worry
