Overview
Common risk factors in the development of SIDS include maternal factors such as age of the mother, smoking history, and prenatal care history, environmental factors which include preterm birth, prone sleeping position, bed-sharing, and overheating.
Risk Factors
Common Risk Factors
- Common risk factors in the development of SIDS may be seen more often in mothers who are younger, less educated, and nonwhite, and smoked during the pregnancy.
- Common risk factors in the development of Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) include:[1][2][3][4]
Maternal risk factors
- Maternal factors which include the following:
- Maternal age:
- Mother who are very young in age are more prone to have SIDS conditions
- Maternal smoking:
- Placental abnormalities:
- Placental abnormalities which include placenta previa, abruptio placentae, premature rupture of membranes or small for gestational age increases the risk of SIDS
- Prenatal care:
- Mothers who did not attend prenatal care are at risk of SIDS
- Maternal age:
Infant risk factors
- Infant risk factors which include the following:
- Prematurity
- Low birth weight
- The risk of developing SIDS in low to very low weight infants is four times higher than normal birth weight infants[8]
- Gestational hypertension with smoking are associated very highly with low birth weight
- Sibling of SIDS
- Due to biologic and/or epidemiological influence the risk of developing SIDS in siblings of SIDS infants is increased to sixfold[9][10]
- But often deaths that are related to inborn errors of metabolism and child abuse are mistaken as SIDS
- Twins
- The risk of developing SIDS in twins is almost double than normal population
- The risk of developing SIDS in twins in according with gestational age ≥37 weeks as follows:
- Relative risk (RR) of SIDS is 1.31- Gestational age 37 to 38 weeks
- Relative risk (RR) of SIDS is 1.47- Gestational age 39 to 40 weeks
- Relative risk (RR) of SIDS is 2.09- Gestational age ≥41 weeks
- History of apnea of the infant
- Sleep position of the infant
- One of the strongest risk factors for developing SIDS is corresponding to the sleep position of the infant
- Prone sleeping position of the infant is the the most important and vulnerable position for the infant to develop SIDS.
- If possible try to avoid side positioning of the infant as this position might lead to the prone position and that in turn leads to the SIDS.
- Supine positioning of the infant for every sleep of every day and every time decreases the risk of developing SIDS.
- Sleep environment of the infant[11][12][13]
- The following sleep environments increases the risk of developing SIDS in an infant :
- Soft sleeping surface
- One of the consistent risk factor for SIDS is using soft sleeping surface and the risk of developing SIDS increases when the infant is in prone position.[14]
- Soft cot mattresses should be avoided to prevent SIDS
- Loose bedding accessories
- Crib bumper pads[16][17]
- According to AAP, US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Canadian Paediatric Society crib bumper pads and bassinet bumpers are banned from using due to increased risk of suffocation of the infant and leads to SIDS
- Bed-sharing[18]
- According to the new studies there is an increased risk or an association when the infant sleeps with the parents and developing SIDS.[19][20][21]
- The risk of developing SIDS increases with bed sharing whose age is younger than three months of the infant or for infants of mothers who smoke.[22]
- Parents who are sleeping on a sofa along with the infants should be avoided and this decreases the risk of developing SIDS.[23]
- Car safety seats and other sitting or inclined rocking devices
- In car due to the sitting position of the infant where the oxygenation decreases increases the risk of SIDS.
- Overheating
- Using more than 2 blankets or using more clotting or increased in the room temperature increases the risk of SIDS.
- Soft sleeping surface
- The following sleep environments increases the risk of developing SIDS in an infant :
- Swaddling
