Evaluation of elevated central apnea-hypopnea index (CAHI) or prolonged central apneas in pediatric patients typically includes neuroimaging with a focus on brainstem pathology. There is little evidence guiding thresholds of polysomnographic variables that accurately predict abnormal neuroimaging. We sought to evaluate whether additional polysomnographic variables may help predict brainstem pathology.
