It has been estimated that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects 1-3% of children (Ali et al., 1993; Bixler et al., 2009; Gislason and Benediktsdóttir, 1995). Children's OSA is known to cause different symptoms that include deficits in cognitive performance (Friedman et al., 2003; Halbower et al., 2006), inattention leading to poor school performance (Gozal, 1998) and behavioral problems such as hyperactivity (Guilleminault et al., 1981; Melendres et al., 2004; O'Brien et al., 2003). Despite the remarkable daytime symptoms among pediatric OSA patients, they may preserve the normal sleep stage distribution with no sleep fragmentation (Goh et al., 2000; Yang et al., 2010).
