Polygraphic Results in High-Risk Infants Aged Under 3 Months
Infants under three months of age referred for apnea showed often abnormal polygraphic indices, showing significant differences between diagnostic groups. Performance of sleep studies in these groups was feasible and allowed to confirm the presence of apneas and their level of severity. Particular attention should be considered in children with CFA and LMG, since their risk is significantly higher. Age-specific apnea patterns seem to be of interest, as this may possibly lead to future consequences.
