Respiratory inhibition after crying which involved a marked decrease in SpO2 was observed in full-term neonates who showed no abnormalities after birth. These neonates could be screened by cranial ultrasonography.
The combination of abnormal cranial ultrasound findings and respiratory pause during feeding with a decrease in SpO(2) appears to be an effective method of screening for RIAC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
