Summary
Paediatric obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) impacts ventilation and sleep. An interdisciplinary approach improves collaborative care and patient outcomes for children with OSA.
Area of Science:
- Pediatric Sleep Medicine
- Respiratory Medicine
- Otolaryngology
Background:
- Paediatric obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a common condition.
- It involves intermittent upper airway obstruction affecting breathing and sleep.
- OSA can have significant consequences for a child's health and development.
Purpose of the Study:
- To provide a comprehensive review of paediatric obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA).
- To explore the pathophysiology, epidemiology, sequelae, and diagnostic methods for paediatric OSA.
- To highlight the evolving role of healthcare professionals in managing paediatric OSA.
Main Methods:
- Literature review utilizing electronic search.
- Analysis of current multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary care models.
- Focus on the collaboration between dental and medical professionals.
Main Results:
- Paediatric OSA requires a multidisciplinary approach involving various specialists.
- An interdisciplinary model, emphasizing collaborative decision-making, offers enhanced patient-centered care.
- Effective management necessitates integrated efforts from sleep physicians, pulmonologists, and ENT surgeons.
Conclusions:
- The shift from multidisciplinary to interdisciplinary care represents a significant advancement in managing paediatric OSA.
- Improved cooperation and shared decision-making among healthcare professionals enhance patient quality of life.
- Integrated care models are crucial for optimizing outcomes in children with OSA.

109
Sleep apnea is a condition where breathing stops intermittently during sleep, often leading to significant health issues. Each episode can last from 10 to 20 seconds or more and is frequently accompanied by a brief arousal from sleep. This disturbance, largely unnoticed by the individual, can lead to severe daytime fatigue. Commonly, individuals seek help after being informed by their partners about loud snoring and noticeable breathing pauses during sleep.

Respiratory assessment is a cornerstone of nursing assessments, crucial for the early detection of patient deterioration. This evaluation transcends routine procedures, representing a critical skill nurses must master to ensure optimal patient care.
Objectives and Importance:
The primary goal of respiratory assessment is to evaluate patients at early risk of clinical deterioration. Since respiratory distress often precedes other signs of declining health, breathing patterns and sounds become a...

Nursing management of pneumonia involves promoting airway patency, facilitating rest and conserving energy, encouraging fluid intake, maintaining nutrition, and educating patients.
The nurse must practice strict medical asepsis and adhere to infection control guidelines to minimize healthcare-associated infections.
