Target Audience Sleep medicine specialists, pediatricians, olaryngologists, clinical trialist Objectives At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to: • improve the ability to identify children with snoring who may benefit the most from adenotonsillectomy, and to improve the ability to refer appropriate subgroups for surgical intervention. • improve the utilization of polysomnography for managing children with snoring or at risk for SDB. • better understand the role of adenotonsillectomy on health care utilization and progression of SDB. Adenotonsillectomy (AT) is the second most common pediatric surgical procedure. High-level evidence of adenotonsillectomy as a treatment for children with snoring and infrequent apneas (mild SDB, MSDD) is lacking. PATS is a 12-month randomized clinical trial of children with MSDB, ages 3 - 12 years, randomized to adenotonsillectomy vs watchful waiting with supportive care. Session will present primary and key secondary data: comparing AT vs watchful waiting in regards to primary neurobehavioral and secondary outcomes (apnea hypopnea index, blood pressure, behavior, obstructive sleep apnea-related quality of life, and sleep symptoms, addressing key knowledge gaps and presenting data to inform future guidelines. 12:00 Introduction 12:02 Changes in Health Care Utilization with Adenotonsillectomy in Children with Mild Sleep Disordered Breathing
