Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) may significantly impact the course of medical illness in hospitalized children. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for establishing diagnosis of SDB, but its availability is limited. The aim of this study was to explore the feasibility and utility of level III portable sleep studies in hospitalized children with SDB.
