Question
How to Distract an Infant’s Apnea Attacks?
Answer
Apnea attacks are a common non-pathological phenomenon in infants and usually do not require special treatment. During an attack, parents can try gently rocking the baby, changing the environment’s volume or temperature, or offering a bottle or pacifier to distract the infant and help them return to normal breathing. However, if apnea attacks occur frequently or are accompanied by other symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention promptly to rule out potential pathological factors.
