Summary
This study compares personalized surgery guided by a sleep endoscopy to standard tonsillectomy for treating obstructive sleep apnea in 303 children with Down syndrome, ages 2 to 17. Sleep apnea is very common in these children and often doesn't improve with standard treatments. The goal is to see if a custom surgical approach leads to better sleep and health outcomes.
