Purpose[edit | edit source]
The Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) is a screening tool for sleep problems in children. It increases the pretest probability of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and can help in the clinical decision making when polysomnography is unavailable[1].
The PSQ is widely used for research and in clinical settings. The questionnaire has 22 questions, comprising three symptom complexes: snoring, excessive daytime sleepiness, and inattentive or hyperactive behaviour.
Intended population[edit | edit source]
- Children with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome[1]
- Children with asthma[2][3]
- Children and Adolescents with obesity[4]
- Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)[5]
Technique[edit | edit source]
- The PSQ is a parent-reported questionnaire and contains 22 items. Parents must fill in the questions about snoring, apneas, daytime sleepiness, inattentive or hyperactive behavior, and other features. They must choose the following responses: ''yes'' = 1, ''no''=0, and ''don't know'' = missing.
The PSQ contains the following questions[7]:
- Does he/she snore more than half the night?
- Does he/she often snore?
- Does he/she snore noisily?
- Does he/she breathe loudly or heavily?
- Does he/she have trouble breathing, or effort to breathe?
- Have you ever seen your child stop breathing?
- Does he/she breathe out of his/her mouth during the day?
- Does he/she have a dry mouth when awake in the morning?
- Does he/she wet the bed?
- Does he/she awake in the morning without being refreshed?
- Does he/she have trouble with sleepiness in the daytime?
- Have a teacher or another supervisor noticed that he/she seems to be asleep during the daytime?
- Is he/she difficult to awaken in the morning?
- Does he/she awake in the morning with headaches?
- Has he/she ceased growing normally since birth?
- Is he/she overweight?
- He/she doesn't appear to listen when you talk to him/her directly
- He/she has trouble organizing duties and activities
- He/she is easily distracted by foreign stimulation
- He/she violins with hands or feet, or twitching in seating
- He/she is ''on the move'' or often acts like he/she is ''powered by an engine''
- He/she interrupts/disturbs others
Scoring[edit | edit source]
The total PSQ score can be segmented into four sub-scores: breathing, behavior, sleepiness, and other. A total score exceeding 0.33 (33% of questions answered positively) suggests the presence of sleep-disordered breathing and demonstrates a sensitivity of 81% and specificity of 87% within the general paediatric population[7].
Psychometric values[edit | edit source]
- The PSQ is a valid tool for sceening paediatric obstructive sleep apnea syndrome with a satisfactory diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity 0.50 and 0.81)[8][9].
- The PSQ has a high sensitivity (0.74) in detecting mild paediatric obstructive sleep apnea syndrome[1].
- The sensitivity of the PSQ in children with asthma is high (76.2 - 81.6), but the specificity is low (13.1 - 14.4)[2].
- The threshold value of 0.65 demonstrated optimal sensitivity (80%) and specificity (100%) for identifying moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea in children and adolescents with obesity[4].
- The PSQ is an easy-to-use screening tool that can aid in the screening for paediatric sleep apnea[10][11].
