ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze the characteristics of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) in children with allergic rhinitis (AR), and improve the diagnosis and treatment at AR combined with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).Methods:
The clinical data of 120 patients with AR and OSA (AR and OSA group) admitted to the respiratory department at Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from May 2019 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 120 children diagnosed with OSA and excluded AR during the same period were selected as control group.The SDB day and night symptoms, sleep structure characteristics and sleep breathing events were compared between two groups.Results:
The average course of disease in children with AR and OSA was significantly longer than that in control group ( P=0.030). The main manifestations of children in AR and OSA group were mouth breathing (100.0%), snoring (99.2%), nasal obstruction (88.5%), and restless sleep (68.0%). There was no significant difference in sleep structure between two groups ( P>0.05), but the sleep efficiency of AR and OSA group was significantly lower than that of control group ( P=0.028). The respiratory events apnea hypopnea index, obstructive apnea index, obstructive apnea hypopnea index, hypopnea index and oxygen desaturation index of each sleep period in AR and OSA group were significantly higher than those in control group ( P<0.05). Among the children in AR and OSA group, moderate and severe OSA were the main manifestations, and the difference between two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.001).Conclusion:
The combination of AR delayed the course of OSA in children.The main characteristics of sleep disordered breathing in children with AR are mouth opening, restless sleep, snoring and nasal obstruction.The sleep efficiency is decreased.Obstructive hypopnea and apnea are the most common respiratory events, and oxygen deficiency often occurs in rapid eye movement phase.Children with AR are more likely to have moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea.
