Pediatric sleep medicine
Sleep and breathing disorders
Night-time breathing symptoms can affect sleep quality, growth, learning, and daytime wellbeing. Early assessment helps clarify the cause.
When to seek specialist advice
- Regular snoring or mouth breathing
- Pauses, gasping, or restless sleep
- Morning headaches or daytime sleepiness
- Difficulty concentrating or behavioral changes
A careful, child-centered approach
Assessment may include sleep history, airway examination, review of growth and daytime symptoms, and sleep testing when clinically appropriate.
