Habitual snoring can occur in both children and adults. If it is physiological snoring, it usually does not require special intervention. If it is pathological snoring, such as snoring caused by central diseases and obstructive diseases, it needs to be treated as soon as possible. Habitual snoring has more harm to children, such as causing sleep structure disorders, slow growth and development. During the snoring process, children’s sleep fragmentation and hypoxia state lead to changes in the transmission of neurochemicals in the brain’s precortex, causing adverse effects on brain function and inducing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. This article reviews relevant research in recent years to further elucidate the relationship between children’s habitual snoring and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and provide a basis for future clinical research and intervention.
