A central hypoventilatory state developed in a 6-month-old boy with environmentally induced hyperthermia. The condition subsided within 24 hours of mechanical ventilation. Hypoxic and hypercapneic challenges performed 2 weeks later showed complete resolution of the respiratory chemoreceptor dysfunction. The damage to the CNS caused by accidental hyperthermia in general, and more specifically to the respiratory center, and its possible etiologic role in the pathophysiology of sudden infant death syndrome are discussed.
一名6个月大的男童因环境性高热出现中枢性通气不足状态。该状况在机械通气24小时内消退。两周后进行的低氧和高碳酸血症激发试验显示呼吸化学感受器功能障碍完全缓解。讨论了一般情况下意外高热对中枢神经系统造成的损害，更具体地说是对呼吸中枢的损害，以及其在婴儿猝死综合征病理生理学中可能的病因学作用。
