Some infants are cared with a home monitoring system during their first year of life. An international clinical consensus has been obtained and has proposed this technique mainly for infants who have presented an apparent life threatening event or for ex-premature with bradycardia or apnea, rather than for siblings of sudden infant death syndrome or other infants. In any case, this monitoring must be held after a complete clinical evaluation of the infant and after a real education of the parents about the use of the device. Many types of devices are used. The most efficient is the cardio-respiratory monitoring. Some of them include a processor and record the alarms. The need to see or to call the medical team to decode them allows close collaboration between the family and the clinical team. Knowledge of the alarms and the circumstances in which they have occurred help the medical team to propose the withdrawal of the home monitoring. Thus, sometimes preventive, sometimes prophylactic, this device will provide us for an optimal help.

In our magnetocardiographic (MCG) localisation studies, two modelling approaches have been applied: (a) modelling the sources with dipole and quadrupole moments in a general multipole expansion and using a homogeneous, semi-infinite volume conductor, and (b) using a single current dipole source in a homogeneous, realistically shaped torso. Both approaches have been successfully applied in localising the premature ventricular excitation site in patients suffering from the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. In addition, we have participated in developing a model of propagation of electrical activation in the ventricles. Anisotropic conductivity properties and spiral arrangement of myocardial fibres are included in the model.
