OSA peaks between 2 and 8 years in children. Early diagnosis is recommended to prevent long\u2010term complications. While PSG is the gold standard for diagnosis, it may not be feasible in certain circumstances; hence, HSAT is now being increasingly used to screen and diagnose OSA.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review was conducted using the methodology in the \u201cCochrane handbook on systematic reviews\u201d. PRISMA flowchart was used to report the results. The risk of bias assessment was done using the \u201cCochrane handbook for systematic review reviews tool for Interventional studies\u201d.

Of these, only three studies employed simultaneous HSAT and PSG testing to evaluate the validity of HSAT indices. In one of the largest studies comparing HSAT with PSG, the mean AHI observed was 2.5\u2009\u00b1\u20093 for HSAT and 2.7\u2009\u00b1\u20092.9 for PSG (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&gt;\u20090.05), indicating that the diagnostic yields of both methods were nearly equivalent. In studies utilizing HSAT alone, the mean apnea\u2010hypopnea index (AHI) ranged from 0.8 to 10.3 events per hour in healthy children, compared to 2.2 to 13 events per hour in children with Down syndrome.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Diagnosing sleep disordered breathing in children can be challenging in a laboratory setting.
