DURATION OF HOME CARDIORESPIRATORY MONITORING. † 1682

Parental compliance with home cardiorespiratory monitoring.

AIMS To evaluate parental compliance with home cardiorespiratory monitoring of premature infants with apnoea, siblings of infants who died of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), and infants with an apparent life threatening event (ALTE), during the first month of use. METHODS A retrospective review of the first month's recordings was conducted on 39 premature infants with apnoea, 13 siblings...

Polysomnography and home documented monitoring of cardiorespiratory pattern.

Polysomnographic findings were compared with data obtained subsequently from home documented monitoring in order to study the diagnostic value of both techniques. Polysomnography was performed in 1274 infants born prematurely and in 422 patients admitted because of apparent life threatening events (ALTEs). In 72 of the infants, home documented monitoring of the cardiorespiratory pattern, includ...

The development of the vertebrate brain requires an exquisite balance between proliferation and differentiation of neural progenitors. Notch signaling plays a pivotal role in regulating this balance, yet the interaction between signaling and receiving cells remains poorly understood. We have found that numerous nascent neurons and/or intermediate neurogenic progenitors expressing the ligand of ...

Factors that influence use of a home cardiorespiratory monitor for infants: the collaborative home infant monitoring evaluation.

BACKGROUND As part of the Collaborative Home Infant Monitoring Evaluation, a home monitor was developed to record breathing, heart rate, other physiologic variables, and the time the monitor was used. OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of monitor use, factors that influence use, and validity of a model developed to predict use. DESIGN We developed a model to predict monitor use using mult...
