Abstract

Submental electromyorgams (SM EMG) were recorded from 20 preterm babies (gestational age 30 +/- 2 wk, postmenstrual age at study 35 +/- 2 wk) (mean +/- SD) and 3 full-term infants (7–14 days old). SM EMG was evaluated during eupnea and brief experimental airway occlusion. Phasic inspiratory SM EMG was rarely seen during eupnea. SM EMG tended to increase on the first occluded effort, although this increase was not statistically significant in most babies. All infants showed progressive breath-by-breath augmentation of phasic SM EMG during occlusions in rapid-eye-movement (REM) as well as quiet (QS) sleep; phasic increases in SM EMG were similar during REM and QS occlusions in the majority (16/22) of babies. Periods of airway closure were detected during 24 occlusions in 5 infants; phasic SM EMG was reduced on these occasions. The results are consistent with the idea that recruitment of upper airway muscles contributes to the stability of the airway of the preterm human.
