| Summary: | We have conducted a critical analysis of publications regarding the possibilities of medicamental treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome in children. Based on the examined studies we made a conclusion that intranasal glucocorticosteroids and leukotriene receptor antagonists can be effective in children with light and moderate lesions of this nature. At the same time, for the time being there isn't enough published data to justify the recommendation of mentioned preparations as an alternative to surgery in children suffering from pulmonary ventilation stoppages. Further studies are required in order to determine the optimal terms of conservative treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in children, to determine the durability of the effect and ascertain the indications and contraindications for different groups of preparations. |
