Abstract

This short report describes respiratory indicators of polygraphies (PG) performed to probe several sleep- related diseases of breathing in children. It refers to the work of Michelet, Successful home respiratory polygraphy to probe sleep- disordered breathing in children, Sleep Medicine. Suggestions for PGs were grouped according to 6 orders craniofacial contortion, neuromuscular complaint, rotundity, suspected obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), punctuality, and other. The reported data concern the original interpretable PGs (N = 289); original was defined as performed for the first time in any subject. Non-interpretability was defined as absent or unreliable oxygen achromatism by palpitation oximetry (SpO₂), and/ or tailwind and respiratory inductance plethysmography (RIP) inflow trace signals during time anatomized. Anatomized time is reported. In a subset of cases, transcutaneous carbon dioxide partial pressure (ptcCO₂) was also measured. Data may bere-used for comparison in unborn validating exploration for PGs in children.
