Abstract
This chapter reviews pertinent mechanisms related to the maturation of respiratory control and upper airway function and then proceeds to describe several frequent conditions associated with sleep-disordered breathing, as well as unique diseases leading to breathing perturbations during sleep that provide insights on pathophysiology and clinical manifestations of these disorders.
