Brief Summary

OBJECTIVES: I. Assess and compare the incidence and severity of cardiorespiratory events documented by home monitoring in infants at increased epidemiological risk for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). II. Determine the antecedent medical, demographic, physiologic, and behavioral characteristics that predict the incidence of cardiorespiratory events documented by home monitoring.
