Increased Incidence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Hospitalized Children After Enterovirus Infection: A Nationwide Population-based Cohort Study

Conclusions: Children with severe EV infection (ie, requiring hospitalization) carry a significantly higher risk of developing OSA, particularly in those with allergic rhinitis. As pediatric obstructive sleep apnea is a treatable sleep disorder, we emphasize regular follow-up and early detection in children with EV infection.
