Background Respiratory disorders, including apnoea, are common in preterm infants due to their immature respiratory control and function compared with term-born infants. However, our inability to accurately measure respiratory rate in hospitalised infants results in unreported episodes of apnoea and an incomplete picture of respiratory dynamics.

一种测量婴儿呼吸间隔以评估呼吸暂停和呼吸动力学的新方法

背景与足月出生的婴儿相比，早产儿的呼吸控制和功能不成熟，因此呼吸系统疾病（包括呼吸暂停）在早产儿中很常见。然而，我们无法准确测量住院婴儿的呼吸频率导致未报告的呼吸暂停发作和呼吸动力学的不完整图像。
