What this Trial Is About
Researchers are validating the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) in a Swedish group of children aged 18 months to 15 years who have symptoms of obstructive sleep disordered breathing (OSDB). This study focuses on confirming how well the questionnaire identifies sleep-related breathing problems in this young population. The research is conducted by Uppsala University and involves children referred to ENT clinics for evaluation. The study uses the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire, which includes 22 questions about symptoms related to obstructive sleep disordered breathing. Children are recruited from multiple locations across Sweden, including Akademiska Sjukhuset, Örebro, Västra Götaland, Skåne, Stockholm, and Umeå. This is an observational study without treatment interventions, focusing on questionnaire validation. Participants will be assessed using the PSQ at baseline and monitored for changes over 6 to 12 months. Researchers will compare PSQ results with other measures such as OSA-18 and PSG at 6 months. The study evaluates differences between healthy children and those with OSDB symptoms. Participation involves completing questionnaires and clinical evaluations to track sleep disorder symptoms and questionnaire accuracy over time.
