Event Description John B. Delos, PhD, William & Mary
We are part of an enthusiastic community of scientists who are extracting
new information from electronic signals that are collected in Intensive Care
Units. New methods of analysis of the
heart rate can give early warning of bacterial infection. New methods of analysis of respiration may
give warning of intestinal or other pathologies. We make use of a huge data set consisting of
about 50 baby-years of all electronic signals collected from infants in
neonatal intensive care units. Recently
we have gained new knowledge about very long (>60 second) apneas in infants
and about periodic breathing (spells of alternating breathing and apnea with
cycle time ~15 seconds). |
