Response to letter to the editor regarding article titled “Polysomnography results versus clinical factors to predict postoperative respiratory complications following pediatric adenotonsillectomy”

We are pleased that Drs. Hsueh, Lee, Lee, and Kang found the article "Polysomnography results versus clinical factors to predict postoperative respiratory complications following pediatric adenotonsillectomy" interesting and useful [1]. We are happy to respond to their comments and questions below. However, we believe it may be useful to first restate our purpose in conducting this study. The notion that polysomnography (PSG) may be indicated pre-operatively for the discrete purpose of assessing post-operative risk of a respiratory complication following adenotonsillectomy (T/A) was recently proposed [2].
