Summary

Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is prevalent in children and adolescents and untreated SDB impacts key indicators of physical and psychosocial health. Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is highly effective for the treatment of SDB and is associated with favorable clinical outcomes but is limited by poor adherence. Emerging literature in adults suggests that intolerance to PAP therapy may be related to coexisting insomnia. However, the presence of insomnia in children with known SDB as well as its impact on PAP adherence have not been explored. This proposal will explore the association of coexisting insomnia on PAP adherence in children with SDB using a cross-sectional study design. The investigators will assess the association between insomnia and PAP therapy adherence, measured as the mean minutes of nightly PAP usage over 6 months of use on objective downloads.
