Could a simple questionnaire replace sleep lab tests for kids?

NCT ID NCT07136909

First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026

Summary

This study aims to see if a French version of the OSA-18 questionnaire can accurately identify obstructive sleep apnea in children. Parents of children aged 4 to 17 who are already scheduled for a sleep test (polysomnography) will fill out the questionnaire. The results will be compared to the sleep test to check the questionnaire's reliability.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If validated, this French questionnaire could provide a simpler, non-invasive way to screen children for sleep apnea in clinics and research.

What could go wrong

This is a validation study, not a treatment trial. The questionnaire may not be as accurate as the gold-standard sleep test, and results may not apply to all children.
