The authors report the results of 16 sleep EEGs carried out on 5 infants said to have survived the syndrome of sudden infant death (near-miss group) and 5 controls. The recordings were performed at 1.5 months, 3 months and 4.5 months, times when the risk of sudden death is maximum. The EEG appearance and the organization of sleep patterns have been studied in both groups. The various states of wakefulness, and the modalities of sleep and waking were subjected to statistical analysis with respect to age. The study showed no significant difference between the percentages of different states of wakefulness in the control and 'near-miss' group, but there were more sleep onsets in active sleep (REM) in this group compared with the controls and there were fewer waking periods, although when they occurred these were more prolonged.
作者报告了对5名据称从婴儿猝死综合征中幸存下来的婴儿（近猝死组）和5名对照组婴儿进行的16次睡眠脑电图检查结果。记录分别在1.5个月、3个月和4.5个月时进行，这些时间点是猝死风险最高的时候。对两组的脑电图表现和睡眠模式的组织情况进行了研究。对不同清醒状态以及睡眠和觉醒方式按年龄进行了统计分析。研究表明，对照组和“近猝死”组不同清醒状态的百分比之间没有显著差异，但与对照组相比，该组快速眼动睡眠（REM）中的睡眠开始次数更多，清醒期更少，不过清醒期一旦出现则持续时间更长。
