Sudden Infant Death Syndrome SIDS

RealCare baby cries when put on its tummy. Real babies can have tummy time when they are awake. Short time Ensure head does not become flattened

What we know about SIDS SIDS occurs in all kinds of families. SIDS occurs in seemingly healthy infants. SIDS has nothing to do with race or economic status. Fall and winter months have the most incidence of SIDS. Most deaths from SIDS happen before the infant is 6 months old, with the largest number between 1 and 4 months of age.

What we know about SIDS SIDS often happens quickly during sleep, and the infant shows no sign of suffering. There is a higher likelihood of SIDS among boys, premature and low- birthweight infants, twins, and triplets. SIDS is determined as the cause of death only after all other causes have been eliminated through an autopsy, and a review of family history. SIDS is the leading cause of death in infants between one month and one year of age. No one knows what causes SIDS.

Risk Factors Infants are more at risk for SIDS if their mother: Smoke while pregnant Are less than 20 years old at the time of the pregnancy Have poor prenatal care Have low weight gain while pregnant Are anemic (deficiency of red blood cells) Use drugs while pregnant Have a history of STDs or urinary tract infections while pregnant

High risk babies – greater risk of SIDS Premature Low birthweight Put to sleep on their stomachs

SIDS Prevention Back to sleep – whether nap or night time Non-fluffy bedding – firm mattress or surface Good prenatal care – good nutrition, avoiding drugs, alcohol No smoking – 3 X more likely to die from SIDS / Exposure after birth doubles likelihood Cool room temperature – infants overheat with too much bedding or clothing

SIDS Prevention Breastfeeding – breast milk can provide extra protection and immunity from infections that can trigger SIDS Regular health care – regular check up and immunizations

SIDS is: Not contagious Not caused by immunizations Not caused by child abuse Not caused by vomiting, choking, olds or infections Not the cause of every unexpected infant death Not anyone’s fault
