  • 수면호흡장애(sleep disordered breathing, SDB)는 상기도의 완전한 또는 부분적 폐쇄로 인해 수면 중 반복적인 저호흡과 무호흡이 나타나는 것을 특징으로 하는 질환이다. 소아 SDB 유병률은 대략 12 - 15%이며, 호발 연령은 주로 3 - 5세의 미취학 어린이이다. 어린이는 코골이와 잦은 각성부터 야뇨증, 과잉행동에 이르기까지 다양한 증상을 보인다. 어린이에서 SDB의 주원인은 편도 및 아데노이드 비대로 인한 상기도의 폐쇄이다. SDB를 치료하지 않으면 학습 장애, 인지 장애, 행동 문제, 심혈관 질환, 대사 증후군, 저성장 등과 같은 합병증을 초래할 수 있다. 소아치과 의사는 SDB의 위험이 있는 소아를 감별하는 특별한 위치에 있다. 소아치과 의사는 SDB와 관련 있는 임상 양상을 인지하고, 소아 수면설문지, 측 모두부계측 방사선사진, 휴대용 간이수면검사 등을 이용하여 SDB를 선별하여 전문가에게 의뢰할 수 있어야 한다. 소아치과에서는 치료를 위해 상악궁 확장, 하악 전방 유도장치, 설소대 절제술 등을 시행할 수 있다. 소아치과 의사는 장기간의 구호흡과 저위설, 설소대단축증 등이 비정상적인 안면골격 성장 및 수면 문제를 일으킬 수 있음을 인지하고, 이러한 문제점들을 예방할 수 있도록 조기에 개입할 수 있어야 할 것이다.
