| Popis: | STUDY OBJECTIVES: Positive airway pressure (PAP) is the second line of treatment for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in children. It is common practice following initiation of PAP to perform repeat titration polysomnography to re-evaluate the patient’s therapeutic pressure; however, data supporting this practice are lacking. We hypothesized that repeat PAP titration would result in significant setting changes in children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed demographic, polysomnographic, and PAP data of children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome aged 0–18 years who were initiated on PAP and underwent 2 titration studies over a 2-year period. PAP mode and recommended pressure differences between the 2 titrations were compared. RESULTS: 64 children met inclusion criteria. The median (interquartile range) baseline obstructive apnea-hypopnea index and SpO(2) nadir were 14.8 (8.7–32.7) events/h and 88.5% (85–92%), respectively. The mean differences in obstructive apnea-hypopnea index, SpO(2) nadir, and % total sleep time with SpO(2) < 90% between both titrations were negligible, including children with obesity, adenotonsillar hypertrophy, and trisomy 21. Additionally, there was no significant difference in mean PAP pressure between 2 separate titration studies for those on continuous PAP or bilevel PAP. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, repeat PAP titration in children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome within the timeframe here described did not result in significant changes in PAP mode, continuous PAP pressure, or obstructive apnea-hypopnea index. Based on these data, repeat PAP titration within 2 years of an initial titration does not appear to be necessary. CITATION: Yendur O, Feld L, Miranda-Schaeubinger M, et al.
