Nasal Budesonide in Children With Rhinitis and/or Mild Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.
Sponsored by: University of Louisville
Information provided by: University of Louisville
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00560586
  Purpose

-Intranasal budesonide therapy may lead to improved symptoms and sleep study findings in children with mild obstructive sleep apnea with and without allergic rhinitis that would not be treated with T&A. The aim of the study is to conduct a randomized double blind cross-over trial comparing the effect of once a day intranasal budesonide therapy vs. placebo in children with mild sleep apnea that would not be candidates for T&A.
