Investigating Reaction Time Among Children Who Snore

Completed
Conditions
Snoring
Interventions
Device: PVT-192
Registration Number
NCT02053012
Lead Sponsor
Vidya Raman
Brief Summary

The investigators feel that children who have OSA or sleep-disordered breathing may have a different reaction time than normal variants. Children who have OSA are known to have behavioral and sleep patterns that are different. It makes sense their reaction time may be different than normal as well. We plan to measure reaction times via a 10 minute psychomotor vigilance test device in children who snore who are coming in for a sleep study or for adenotonsillectomy.
