Feasibility of Unattended Home Polysomnography and Comparison to In-laboratory Polysomnography in Pediatric Patients

The purpose of the study proposed is twofold. First Investigators will test the feasibility of conducting portable sleep monitoring in school aged children using the Clevemed Sleepview (www.clevelmed.com), one of the smallest portable sleep monitors commercially available at 57 grams. Second, Investigators will perform a direct comparison between the results obtained with this portable sleep monitor and those obtained from a standard-of-care in-laboratory attended sleep study performed at the St. Louis Children's Hospital Pediatric Sleep Center. These comparisons will be offered to the participants suspected of having sleep disordered breathing who present to the Washington University Pediatric Otolaryngology Department. Investigators will obtain the medical history and medications and results of the sleep study done at SLCH sleep lab from the medical record for research purposes.
