ObjectiveEvaluation of the respiratory response to proton pump inhibitors (PPI) in children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).MethodsOf 131 children diagnosed with OSAS (Apnea Hypopnea Index, AHI >1/h), 37 children (6.9 years; 28.24%) with GERD symptoms (>3 times/week) were included. Overnight polysomnography with 24 h pH-metry was performed before and after 4–8 weeks of PPI treatment (omeprazole once a day, 1 mg/kg).ResultsOf 37 children, 21 were diagnosed with acid GERD where pre- and post-treatment reflux indexes were 14.09 ± 1.47 vs. 7.73 ± 1.36; (p < 0.001). The number of obstructive apneas and hypopneas decreased after PPI treatment, resulting in an AHI reduction from 13.08 ± 3.11/h to 8.22 ± 2.52/h; (p < 0.01). Respiratory response to PPI ranged from complete resolution of OSA (three children with mild OSA; AHI < 5/h; 10.31 years; 14.29%) to lack of significant AHI change (six children with severe OSA; AHI > 10/h; 3.62 years; 28.57%). Post-treatment AHI was predicted by pre-treatment reflux index (adjusted R2 = 0.487; p < 0.001).ConclusionsReduction of obstructive respiratory events following short-term PPI treatment in children with both GERD and OSAS may suggest a causal relationship between apnea and reflux in some children. Questionnaire screening for GERD in children with OSAS may be of benefit.
