SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome)

Every year, there are more than 3,500 sudden unexpected infant deaths in the United States. “It’s definitely traumatic,” and it can be hard to anticipate. “We don’t really have predictive factors to say if this child or family is more at risk other than these other issues like heart disease or lung disease or brain issues including family history,” said Pediatrician Dr. Phillip Mote. Although unintentional suffocation is the leading cause of injury-related death among children under one year old, Pediatrician Dr. Phillip Mote said the good news is that it’s rare and there are steps you can take to prevent it through safe sleep methods. “The safe way for babies to sleep, meaning on their back, on a flat surface, no other objects in the crib or near the mattress, including blankets, pillows, and stuffed animals….basically, so nothing can get over their mouth for suffocation that they would roll into.” 99% of the time babies don’t need a monitoring device like an oxygen sensor or heart rate sensor. “Because they’re very sensitive and so you’re going to get a lot of false alarms meaning almost every night you could wake up to a beep and it could be nothing,” said Dr. Mote. “Definitely do the video monitor be aware if you hear noises just the basic kind of stuff.” The exception is for premature babies who may have been in the NICU, but your doctor will know what’s best for each individual situation.
