Definition of SIDS • Sudden and unexpected death of an infant for which sufficient cause cannot be found by a death scene investigation, review of the history, and a postmortem • 1week-1 year old (2-4 months < 6months) • ALTE (Apparent life-threatening event) • Color change • Hypotonia • 70% found in the morning…..
Risk Factors • Lending for intervention • Prone positioning • Maternal smoking • Bottle-feeding vs Breast feeding????
Normal Control of Heart Rate and Breathing • Breathing • Brainstem • Heart rate • Autonomic nervous system
SIDS • Etiology: • Brainstem: controls breathing(Prematurity?) • Central Apnea & periodic breathing • Tests for assessing risk factors • NO test that predicts risk for SIDS • Polysomnography/ pneumogram • Frequency of apnea
