Sleep-disordered Breathing in Children With Craniofacial Anomalies.

Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is a common disorder in children, characterized by snoring and/or increased breathing force due to narrowing and increased upper airway collapse while sleeping. Over the last decade, it has been recognized that SDB occurs more frequently in children with craniofacial anomalies, but data in Thailand is quite limited. This study retrospective descriptive study aims to find the prevalence of SDB among children with craniofacial anomalies in Thailand and associated risk factors by collecting data among Thai children with congenital craniofacial anomalies younger than 15 years old who visited the Princess Sirindhorn Craniofacial Center at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital between 2016 and 2021.
