Type: article

Abstract: • Parent symptoms predict executive dysfunction better than PSG indices. • Traditional PSG metrics do not correlate with executive function deficits. • Validated questionnaires align closely with neurobehavioral morbidity. • Symptom burden is a superior predictor for surgical decision-making.
