Summary

In a longitudinal cohort study, we want to assess the effect of the pre-epiglottic baton plate, the main treatment approach currently used in Germany for Pierre-Robin-Like phenotype, on upper airway obstruction and failure to thrive using objective criteria (mixed-obstructive apnea index assessed by polysomnography, standard deviation score for body weight) upon admission and 3 months after hospital discharge.
