My child is 7 yrs old. sleep study report shows ahi of 1.1. is that normal. it shows 10 apneas.1 unclassified apnea,8 obstructive apneas, 1 central apnea. is that normal for her age?

It is my understanding that ahi score of less than 5, is normal. I am somewhat more concerned with her episodes of apnea. Has she been examined by a Pedodontist, for being tongue tied. Also, what does the Pediatrician have to say. I think the input from those two Specialists can give you some more insight of possible treatment options.👍👍☺️

The report may be reviewed during a consultation with Healthtap. It is indicative of mild obstructive apnea. The report has additional information which may be important in the interpretation. Watch for signs of daytime sleepiness, decline in school performance and snoring.
