The Use of Computer Decision Support for Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea Detection in Primary Care

Conclusions:A CDSS can be used to support PCPs in identifying children at risk for OSA. Most snoring children met criteria for further evaluation. It will be important to further evaluate this referral threshold as well as the readiness of the sleep medicine field to meet this need.Clinical Trials Registration:Registry: ClinicalTrials.gov, Title: Evidence-based Diagnosis and Management of Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Primary Care, Identifier: NCT02781376, URL:https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02781376Citation:Honaker SM, Street A, Daftary AS, Downs SM.
