After starting general anesthesia (putting patient to sleep for procedure), the surgeon will perform direct laryngoscopy (look at the throat and voice box) and bronchoscopy (look at the entrance to the lungs \\[trachea or windpipe\\]). If your child is diagnosed with laryngomalacia (flopping of the tissue around the voice box, potentially causing obstruction or blockage), 50% will undergo a further treatment (laser supraglottoplasty, or removal of tissue at the entrance of the voice box) and 50% will be observed. The decision to treat or not treat will be random, as is customary for prospective research trials. All children (both treatment arms will receive a 3 week treatment of a medicine (a proton pump inhibitor) to reduce the level of stomach acid and prevent potential exposure of the larynx (voice-box) to stomach acid. If your child does not have laryngomalacia, no further treatment on the larynx (voice-box) will be performed. Next, adenotonsillectomy will be performed as is common for the Otolaryngologist performing the procedure. Postoperatively, a sleep study will be performed (identical to the preoperative study) ideally 3-6 months after surgery, (but up to one year after) to monitor your child's progress. Additional laboratory tests or drawing of blood is not routine in this procedure, but may be performed as dictated by your child's medical conditions."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '18 Years', 'minimumAge': '1 Year', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 1 year old to 18 years of age, clinical signs or symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (snoring, witnessed apneas, daytime somnolence, restless sleeping, or cyanosis), abnormal polysomnogram (mild, moderate, or severe OSA) including CO2 measures, failed or refused trial of CPAP, or not recommended by their pulmonologist or primary care doctor.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* prior laser supraglottoplasty, prior adenoidectomy prior tonsillectomy, stridor with cyanosis or apnea, severe respiratory distress, recurrent pneumonia (x3), Laryngeal cyst, vocal cord (VC) Paralysis, airway vascular malformation, neoplasm, subglottic hemangioma, paradoxical vocal cord (VC) motion, posterior glottic stenosis, glottic webs, discoordinate pharyngolaryngomalacia, or refusal to participate.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00394550', 'briefTitle': 'Treatment of Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Laryngomalacia: the Role of Laser Supraglottoplasty', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Indiana University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Treatment of Children With Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Laryngomalacia: the Role of Laser Supraglottoplasty', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '1011003593'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'control', 'description': 'If laryngomalacia is found, then in the control group, no supraglottoplasty will be performed.
