Computer-based sleep monitoring in SIDS-risk infants--preliminary results.
A computerized, PC-based system is introduced for sleep monitoring in infants. The system is capable of digitizing and storing 22 physiological variables over a whole-night sleep period. The preprocessed data can be displayed on a single page; further processing can be done on the digitally stored data.
