In recent years, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been increasingly recognized as a serious health problem in children. As such, there has been substantial growth in the number of research studies published in the field of pediatric OSA. It can be difficult for providers to stay current with the literature as studies are published in the journals of numerous different disciplines including pulmonary, neurology, otolaryngology, and psychology. This instructional course will review the most innovative and influential studies published in pediatric OSA between 2021 and 2022. We will focus on advancements in diagnosis, treatment, and sequelae by providing critical review and commentary of selected publications. To provide the best care to pediatric patients presenting with OSA, otolaryngologists must be familiar with the most up-to-date evaluation and management options.
