A 12-year-old male with non-verbal autism and morbid obesity was referred to a pediatric sleep center during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic for complaints of snoring with tonsillar hypertrophy and difficulty falling asleep. Due to social challenges, the family had not sought out in-person care in the past. Through telemedicine consultation and home sleep apnea testing, the patient was diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea as well as an irregular sleep-wake disorder. This unique utilization of the healthcare system in the care of a complex patient with multiple sleep disorders demonstrates the utility of remote care and testing. There is a great benefit to continuing to provide pediatric sleep care in this way beyond the pandemic.

为复杂儿童提供基于远程医疗的睡眠服务:在大流行期间及之后优化护理

在 SARS-CoV-2 大流行期间,一名患有非语言自闭症和病态肥胖的 12 岁男性因抱怨打鼾、扁桃体肥大和入睡困难而被转诊至儿科睡眠中心。由于社会挑战,这个家庭过去没有寻求亲自护理。通过远程医疗咨询和家庭睡眠呼吸暂停测试,患者被诊断出患有阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停以及不规律的睡眠-觉醒障碍。医疗保健系统在护理患有多种睡眠障碍的复杂患者中的这种独特利用证明了远程护理和测试的实用性。在大流行之后继续以这种方式提供儿科睡眠护理有很大的好处。
