ABSTRACT:
A mattress for infants which provides for the removal of exhaled carbon dioxide from the infant's facial area, with the resulting inflow of fresh air for breathing. A small electric fan draws the contaminated air through a series of passageways formed within the mattress, away from the infant's face, and expels it near the foot of the mattress.
