Sleep apnea is a potentially serious condition that happens when a person stops breathing while asleep. Dr. Katherine Rivera-Spoljaric, Pulmonologist at St. Louis Children’s Hospital, covers what you need to know about sleep apnea, including the causes, common symptoms associated with the disorder, how it is diagnosed, and how it is treated. If you suspect your child has sleep apnea, take note of the symptoms and discuss them with your child’s pediatrician.
