title: [The diagnosis of autonomic disorders in premature newborns].
abstract: A diagnostic algorithm has been worked out for identification of sympathicotonia and parasympathicotonia in newborn infants. The algorithm is calculated on the basis of results of observations carried out in 286 premature infants who had been examined three times during the first fourteen days of their lives. Included in the algorithm are 11 indices of informative value. Score total +13 suggest to us sympathicotonia while -13 indicates parasympathicotonia, with probability threshold being 95%. The above method permits the determination of direction of autonomic disorders in newborn infants, in which case there is no necessity whatever to conduct elaborate and expensive investigations (spectral analysis of the heart's rhythm, measurement of hormones and mediators.
