Sleep disordered breathing in children may contribute to behavioral problems. I'm Erin White and this is a dailyRx Minute. Sleep-disordered breathing refers to a number of possible conditions that involve abnormal breathing during sleep, such as sleep apnea and snoring. Children with sleep-disordered breathing tended to exhibit a higher number of behavior problem symptoms and hyperactive symptoms than children whose sleep studies indicated they were breathing normally during sleep. Ask your doctor how to treat sleep disordered breathing in your child. For dailyRx TV, I'm Erin White.
