Abstract
To determine whether sustained resolution of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) in young children, either because of treatment or spontaneous recovery, predicted long-term improvements in quality of life, family functioning, and parental stress. STUDY DESIGN: Children diagnosed with primary snoring (n = 16), mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA, n = 11), moderate-severe (MS) OSA (n = 8), and healthy nonsnoring controls (n = 25) at ages 3-5 years underwent repeat polysomnography at 6-8 years. Parents completed quality of life and parental stress questionnaires at both time points. Resolution of SDB was determined as obstructive apnea hypopnea index (OAHI)
