Presenting exhaustive research on the breathing patterns and behaviors during sleep in children, this comprehensive reference covers the physiology of sleep development and breathing rhythms, the normal and abnormal maturation of sleep from childhood through adolescence, the effects of diseases and disorders on children during sleep, and treatment and management for better sleep-seeking to improve the health of children and adults.
Utilizes a developmental approach from the perspectives of biology and physiology to reevaluate the significance of sleep behavior in children's health and as a nascent point for adult diseases
Written by an international roster of nearly 60 experts who investigate the causal relationships between sleep, breathing, and health conditions, Sleep and Breathing in Children
