Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a common indication for adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy in children.

 

Traditional practice involves overnight admission to monitor for respiratory complications.

However, there is a shift towards same day discharge in selected patients.

We performed a systematic search of EMBASE, Medline and the Cochrane library.

 

All data collected were independently validated for accuracy. Quality assessment of included articles was performed. The protocol was registered with PROSPERO.
