Journal ArticleDOI
The Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and Apnea/Obstruction During Neonatal Sleep and Feeding
TL;DR: Results are consistent with the general hypothesis that prolonged apnea or airway obstruction is part of the pathophysiologic process resulting in SIDS and those hypotheses implicating unstable respiratory activity during sleep as well as apnea and pharyngeal/laryngeals dysfunction induced by liquid stimulation of the upper airway.
Journal ArticleDOI
QTc and R-R intervals in victims of the sudden infant death syndrome.
TL;DR: Electrocardiograms obtained during sleep within the first and/or fourth week postnatally were interpreted as being inconsistent with the congenital variants of the long-QT hypothesis but compatible with the growing conviction that infants who die of SIDS have a chronic underlying abnormality that has subtle manifestations within the immediate postnatal period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep respiratory instability in term neonates under hyperthermic conditions: age, sex, type of feeding, and rapid eye movements.
TL;DR: The observations that apneic pauses are influenced by age, sex, type of feeding, and rapid eye movements indicate that careful consideration must be given to these variables when comparing infant groups, and have implications for increasing the understanding of respiratory control mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), apnea, and near miss for SIDS.
TL;DR: The causes of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) probably represent a number of specific processes rather than one disease, the causes of which have so far eluded scientists as discussed by the authors.
