Annual Safe Sleep Learning Conference

Speaker and Panel Discussion

Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the most common cause of death in infants 1 month to 1 year of age, yet its cause remains unknown. In this presentation, we will discuss current SIDS research on the potential causes of SIDS. We will review these as the evidence supporting their recommendations. All recommendations will include references of studies supporting them, and data will be reviewed. SIDS is most common in indigenous populations (American Indians, Alaska Natives, etc.), and African Americans.
