Milestones
1837: Charles Dickens, in the Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club,described an obese boy named Joe with excessive daytime somnolence.
Joe has become the prototype of the obesity-hypoventilation syndrome, and probably suffered from obstructive sleep apnea.
1918: Sir William Osler, was subsequently coined the word „Pickwickian‟ to describe such obese, hypersomnolent patients.
1928: Berger, Human EEG alpha waves.
1937: Loomis, EEG Sleep stages described.

Milestones
1965: Gastaut et al. documented the presence of repetitive obstructive apneas during polysomnographic recording of an obese Pickwickian patient.
The link between obesity, hypoventilation, daytime somnolence, and upper airway obstruction was now established.
1972: Guilleminault – coined the term OSA.
1990: International Classification of Sleep Disorders.

What is Sleep?
“a reversible behavioral state of
perceptual disengagement from and unresponsiveness to the environment”
75% in Non-REM sleep
25% REM sleep –muscle atonia,
autonomic activation
![Page 5: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
NREM sleep:
Normal muscle tone
Regular respiration
Four stages of NREM sleep based on EEG
Stage 1-small amplitude high frequency waves resembling awake state
Stage 4-large amplitude and lowest frequency waves approaching REM
![Page 6: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
REM sleep:
Rapid eye movements.
Generalized hypotonia of muscles.
Irregular rate and depth of respiration.
Marked suppression of hypothalamic regulation of homeostasis.

Sleep Disordered Breathing:
Sleep-Disordered Breathing (SDB):
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS)
–Obstructive Sleep Hypopnea Syndrome (OSHS)
–Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome (UARS)
Heavy Snorers Disease (HSD):
![Page 8: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Definitions:
OSAS: describe a person with specific symptoms and signs (daytime sleepiness, cognitive dysfunction, snoring, hypertension, and a narrow upper airway), and a polysomnogram showing upper airway obstruction.
associated symptoms have frequently been described, including gastro-esophageal reflux, nocturnal or unusually enuresis, abnormal motor activity, and sweating during sleep.
![Page 9: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Definitions (Continue):
Apnea is cessation of airflow >10 sec, ends in arousal
OSA- apnea with continued respiratory efforts
Hypopnea –reduction in airflow of
50% with 4% desaturation, ends in arousal
Apnea / Hypopnea Index (AHI)

Syndromes:
OSAS: AHI >5/ h. on polysomnography.
UARS: AHI <5/ h., excessive daytime somnolence, elevated intra-thoracic pressure
Primary Snoring: no polysomnogram abnormalities

Upper airway resistance syndrome:
A group of children with:
Symptoms of (OSAS) excessive daytime somnolence but
Without polygraphic apnea and hypopneas.
Rather repeated central nervous system arousals, during sleep
However, these children were found to have increased respiratory efforts during sleep.
Using esophageal manometry as a measure of respiratory effort, it was noted that such arousals were preceded by increased respiratory effort.
![Page 19: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The typical presentation of UARS patients:
Daytime somnolence,
Not obese,
May or may not snore,
But typically has a narrowed upper airway anatomy.
particularly hypotension,Of interest, postural hypotension, seems to be a common finding in such patients, in contrast to OSAS where hypertension is the usual finding.
![Page 20: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Clinical assessment:
Diagnosis may be wrong in 50 % cases
Loud snoring + witnessed apneas identified OSAHS with sensitivity 78% and specificity 67%
Neck circumference <37cm , >48 cm are associated with low and high risk of OSA
Obesity (BMI>30) independent risk factor but ~ 50% cases are not obese

Excessive daytime sleepiness
Obesity Vs. Fatty
Increased respiratory effort

Pediatric OSAS:
Impaired growth
* Possible impairment of release or end-organ response to GH
* Increased caloric effort with respiration
* Difficulty with eating
Cor pulmonal

Anesthesia Considerations:
Children with OSA with a cold should be postponed for 4 weeks.
Children with signs and symptoms suggestive of severe OSA with cardiac involvement need to be assessed by a cardiologist prior to surgery
The improvement is not immediate, but children are dramatically improved in the weeks after surgery.
![Page 32: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Premedication:
Sedative premedication should be avoided for children with OSA.
Parents to accompany the child to the anaesthetic room to reduce the child‟s
anxiety.
![Page 33: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Induction:
May be gaseous or intravenous, depending on the child and the preference of the anesthetist.
Immediately after induction” with the loss of pharyngeal tone “ airway almost
obstruct & may be relieved by jaw thrust and the application of CPAP.
As soon as the child is deep enough an oral airway should be inserted and effectively relieves the obstruction.
![Page 34: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Induction (Continue):
Children with severe micrognathia (expected will not be easy to intubate) a cautious gas induction is sensible in this situation.
Intubation and electively ventilation of children with severe OSA, usually using a short acting non-depolarising NMBDs.
Intubation under deep anesthesia without muscle relaxant is unwise in this situation.
Suxamethonium should be used if non depolarising agents are not available.
![Page 35: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Maintenance& Recovery:
Children with severe OSA have been estimated to require 50% less opioid than normal children due to increased opioid sensitivity.
Analgesia should be carefully titrated to effect, Simple analgesics should be used.
Awake Extubation at the end of surgery.Opioid analgesia should be kept to a minimum
in the postoperative period.Insertion of a nasopharyngeal prong airway
(NP airway) for these children at the end of surgery
![Page 36: Child with OSA Anesthetic considerations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042814/55505150b4c90574428b45d1/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Postoperative:
Airway obstruction is not relieved immediately after surgery in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy for severe OSA. This is mainly due to edema and swelling at the operation site, which improves in the first 24-48 hours after surgery.
The child is nursed on the high dependency area (HAD) with the NP airway in position for the first night at least – it is very important to regularly do suction the airway with soft suction catheter.
Careful overnight observation, using saturation monitoring as part of routine monitoring on the ward / HAD , but do not administer oxygen to those with severe OSA unless required.
