Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), also known as cot death or crib death, is the sudden unexplained death of a child less than one year of age. It requires that the death remains unexplained even after a thorough autopsy and detailed death scene investigation. SIDS usually occurs during sleep.
Sudden infant death is a tragic event for any parent or caregiver. 1  SIDS is suspected when a previously healthy infant, usually younger than 6 months of age, is found dead in bed. 2  Even though the specific cause (or causes) of SIDS remains unknown, scientific efforts have eliminated several previously held theories.
