Accelerometry for sleep assessment in children: Criterium validity of different algorithms in wrist- and ankle-worn devices.

Polysomnography, the gold-standard for measuring sleep, is costly, intrusive and usually limited to 1 night. Actigraphy offers a more affordable, less intrusive method over multiple nights. However, little research validates ActiGraph accelerometers against polysomnography, especially in children.

Respiratory outcomes after cleft palate closure in Robin sequence: a retrospective study.

Objectives: There is a paucity of information about the possible risk factors that could identify patients with Robin sequence (RS) who are more prone to developing obstructive airway complications after palate closure. This study aimed to compare the respiratory complication rates in patients with RS and isolated cleft palate (ICP).

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, we reviewed the medical records of 243 consecutive patients with RS and ICP who were treated at Amsterdam University Medical Centers over the past 25 years.

Differences in analysis and treatment of upper airway obstruction in Robin sequence across different countries in Europe.

The goal of this study was to explore the availability of diagnostic and treatment options for managing upper airway obstruction (UAO) in infants with Robin Sequence (RS) in Europe. Countries were divided in lower- (LHECs, i.e.

Evaluating International Diagnostic, Screening, and Monitoring Practices for Craniofacial Microsomia and Microtia: A Survey Study.

To (1) appraise current international classification and clinical management strategies for craniofacial microsomia (CFM) and microtia, and (2) to assess agreement with the European Reference Network "European Guideline Craniofacial Microsomia" recommendations on screening and monitoring. This was a cross-sectional online survey study. The survey consisted of 44 questions on demographics, diagnostics and classification, obstructive sleep apnea, feeding difficulties, speech and language development, hearing, ocular abnormalities, visual development, orthodontic screening, genetic counselling, psychological wellbeing, and extracraniofacial anomalies.

Managing infants with craniofacial malformations - Where to go next?

Treatment of infants with craniofacial malformations, e.g. Robin sequence, is characterized by considerable heterogeneity and a lack of randomized trials to identify an optimal approach.
