Abstract

A model has been adapted to explain periodic breathing in infants during sleep. Using parameter values determined in various studies by others, it is shown that the respiratory control system of certain infants is marginally stable so that a small change in one or more of the parameters can cause periodic breathing with a period of about 14 s.
