Description
Summary:Background Studies have shown that sleep disorders occur in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and may be present before daytime clinical manifestations. Objectives To evaluate the presence of sleep disorders among children and adolescents with CF, attempting to identify associations with pulmonary function, nutritional status, days in hospital, and days taking antibiotics. Methods Individuals with a diagnosis of CF aged between 6 and 18 years were included. Information on sociodemographic, clinical profile, history of hospitalizations, and use of antibiotics in the last year were collected. Spirometry, bioimpedance, and polysomnography were performed. The presence of nocturnal hypoxemia and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) were evaluated and participants divided according to their presence. Results Thirty‐one patients were included. The prevalence of OSAS was 32.3% and nocturnal hypoxemia was 29.0%. Average nocturnal peripheral oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2) correlated (P
