Congenital central hypoventilation (Ondine's curse) is described in an infant with persistant symptoms throughout the first nine months of life. Respiratory control was most severely affected quiet sleep, although abnormalities were present rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and while awake. Failure metabolic led to profound hypoventilation. Behavioral or "behavioral-like" inputs awake state REM increased ventilation, but not expected normal levels. The ventilatory response inhaled 4% CO2...

Twenty-four hour recordings of respiratory wave form and ECG were made on low-birth-weight and/or premature infants within one week discharge from eight neonatal intensive care units. Eight (0.7%) had episodes apnea greater than 30 seconds in duration, all which accompanied by bradycardia less 100 beats per minute; 25 (2.3%) a total 36 apneic between 20 29 or equal to 19 (1.7%) 50 minute without prolonged (as shown lack breathing movement). Five ventricular (including with tachycardia)....

Serial respiratory recordings using impedance pneumography and barometric plethysmography were made from shortly after birth to 7 months in fifteen normal full‐term infants. Each recording was with the infant asleep sleep state estimated records of electroencephalogram electro‐oculogram parallel. The obtained during non‐rapid eye movement (r.e.m.) analysed computer assistance stretches record, approximately 1 min before up 2 a spontaneous sigh ensuing apnoeic pause, processed presented as...
