ABSTRACT:
An infant respiratory arrest stimulator device which includes a frame and a crib pivotally supported on the frame about a generally horizontally extending axis. The crib has a generally horizontally aligned child supporting surface and sidewalls extending upwardly therefrom adjacent the perimeter of the supporting surface. A drive motor is mounted on the frame and has an output member rotatable about a generally horizontal axis of rotation. A crank arm is secured to the rotatable output member and a connecting structure is provided for drivingly connecting the crank arm to the crib at a location spaced perpendicularly away from the axis of rotation of the crib to thereby effect a pivoting motion of the crib about its axis of rotation in response to a rotation of the output member. A control is provided for controlling the frequency and amplitude of the pivoting motion. Additional structure is provided for initiating a rotation of the output member in response to an occurrence of an apnea and bradycardia episode to a child located on the supporting surface of the crib, so that the child will be vigorously shaken by the rapid movement of the supporting surface the moment an apnea and bradycardia episode is detected.
