Apnea Monitors
apnea_baby.jpgApnea is a pause in breathing, and can be accompanied by bradycardia , which is an abnormal slowing of the heart. The apnea monitor will alert you when this happens to your baby at home. The alarm on the monitor will sound and by merely stimulating the baby, breathing and heart rate will return to normal.

Apnea Monitors are machines that monitor the breathing and heart rate of infants. An alarm sounds if either rate slows down, and the events are recorded and information is downloaded monthly.

The average time for most babies to be monitored is six months; however, your baby may need more or less time.
