Using continuous nasal airway pressure in infants with craniofacial malformations
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in infants and children with craniofacial malformations. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) represents an effective noninvasive treatment for severe upper airway obstruction in these children, reducing the need of surgery or a tracheostomy. The decision to start CPAP should be discussed by a multidisciplinary team in order to decide the optimal individualized treatment strategy. CPAP initiation depends on patients' clinical characteristics and local practices, with an increase tendency towards an outpatient program. Follow-up and monitoring strategy varies among centers but benefits from the analysis of built-in software data in order to assess objective adherence and breathing parameters, reducing the need of in-hospital sleep studies. The possibility to wean CPAP should be periodically checked after surgical treatment or when spontaneous resolution is suspected. Finally, these infants with craniofacial malformations should have a long term follow up because of the risk of OSA recurrence over time
