Frequential Characterization of Healthy and Pathologic Newborns Cries
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present recent developments in the characterizat ion of healthy and pathologic cries of newborns. We have identified and quantified acoustic characteristics that appear the most relevant in differentiating between pathological and healthy cries; such as fundamental frequency (F0), irregularity of F0 and presence of hyper-phonic modes. The results obtained are very encouraging, since the characteristics measured actually differentiate pathological cries from the cries of healthy babies.

BACKGROUND Neonatal jaundice is a common cause of sensorneural hearing loss in children. OBJECTIVES We aimed to detect the neurotoxic effects of pathologic hyperbilirubinemia on brain stem and auditory tract by auditory brain stem evoked response (ABR) which could predict early effects of hyperbilirubinemia. PATIENTS AND METHODS This case-control study was performed on newborns with patholo...

متن کاملDoes umbilical cord bilirubin level have predictive value in pathologic neonatal hyperbilirubinemia?
Introduction The increase in the use of breast feeding and the decrease in mothers' hospitalization in the past few years have caused an increase in the infant bilirubin level, so it is necessary to introduce methods which can identify infants with higher risks of hyperbiliru binemia. The aim of this study is to determine the predictive value of measuring the umbilical cord bilirubin for patho...
