Zusammenfassung:We examined 30 newborn infants for respiratory compromise before, during, and after placement in a recommended car seat restraining device. Twelve infants were premature with a history of apnea, eight were premature without knwon apnea, and 10 were born at term. Both premature groups had significant decreases in oxygen saturation while in the car seat (P
