Abstract

Stridor in the newborn period may result from numerous causes, both congenital and acquired. Its presentation is diverse, and understanding the subtleties of that diversity is the key to determining the likely cause of the stridor, as well as the urgency for specialist evaluation. This article presents a framework for evaluating the quality of stridor in the newborn, as well as a review of the characteristics of stridor associated with entities commonly encountered in the neonatal airway.
