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.
An autopsy can answer the familyâs questions about whether a babyâs death was due to SIDS or some known cause. If the cause is known, by definition it cannot be called Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. In Connecticut, the Medical Examiner and the Police are required by law to perform an autopsy and a scene investigation.
