Abstract: In recent years, the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea(OSA)in children has been progressively increasing. As children are in their growth and development stage, sleep fragmentation and intermittent hypoxemia caused by OSA can seriously damage their neurocognitive abilities, as well as disrupt their healthy growth. OSA in children markedly differs from that in adults in terms of cause, diagnostic criteria, and related examinations. Furthermore, its influence on cognitive and behavioral functions is still controversial. Reviewing the relevant literature, the author summarizes the correlation between OSA in children and their cognitive functions, and addresses future developmental trends.

Key words: Children, OSA, Cognitive function, Snoring, Assessment scale
