A randomised control trial was carried out on support measures given to parents with a subsequent child after previously suffering a cot death. Apnoea monitors were used in one group and weighing scales in the other. General support measures given to both groups included the keeping of symptom charts and weekly visits by health visitors. Many alarms occurred which were presumed to be false. Eleven per cent fewer symptoms were reported by parents of children on monitors than parents of children being weighed daily. Both systems were acceptable and gave parents confidence. Sixty per cent of parents were reluctant to give up using the monitor compared with 26% of parents using scales. Virtually all parents commented on the great value of the weekly home visit of the health visitor and the symptom diary.
针对曾经历过婴儿猝死的有新生子女的父母所给予的支持措施进行了一项随机对照试验。一组使用呼吸暂停监测仪,另一组使用体重秤。两组都给予的一般支持措施包括记录症状图表以及健康访视员每周上门探访。出现了许多被认为是误报的警报。使用监测仪的孩子的父母报告的症状比每天称体重的孩子的父母少11%。两种系统都可以接受,并且让父母有信心。60%的父母不愿停止使用监测仪,而使用体重秤的父母这一比例为26%。几乎所有父母都评价说健康访视员每周上门探访和症状日记非常有价值。
