Journal ArticleDOI
Congenital failure of automatic ventilation (Ondine's curse)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described another infant with congenital failure of automatic ventilation; a defective response of the central chemorecepto's to the usual stimuli for respiration was demonstrated, but no specific explanation was found.
Journal ArticleDOI
TOTAL AGANGLIONOSIS OF THE COLON (HIRSCHSPRUNG'S DISEASE) and CONGENITAL FAILURE OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL OF VENTILATION (ONDINE'S CURSE)
TL;DR: This is the fourth case reported with a combination of defects involving nerve cell function of the brain stem and gastrointestinal tract, and total aganglionosis of the colon presenting with small intestinal obstruction in the neonatal period was observed in combination with congenital alveolar hypoventilation requiring continuous mechanical ventilation in a boy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diaphragm Pacing in Infants and Children: Report of a Simplified Technique and Review of Experience
TL;DR: Diaphragm pacing was used for treating 6 infants with congenital hypoventilation syndrome at the Children's Memorial Hospital, Chicago with results comparable to those reported in adults.

TL;DR: The apparent functional defect possibly stems from an abnormal migration or differentiation of neural crest derived cells into the autonomic ventilatory control system and may be regarded as a feature of complex neurocristopathies, as confirmed by the observation of a combination of CCHS and other neuroc Cristopathies.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied spectral analysis through multivariant autoregressive model fitting to RR interval (RRI) and respiratory (RES) oscillation obtained during quiet sleep in an infant with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (Ondine's curse), a child with obstructive sleep apnea, and two healthy children.
