Abstract

Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an underdiagnosed and often ignored entity. Besides, its management needs a multimodality approach including medical, surgical, dental, and positive airway pressure therapy. This short review discusses the approach, management, and screening options for pediatric OSA along with a glimpse of the latest innovations and the road ahead.
