Overview
Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) may be caused by genetic mutations, brainstem abnormality, airflow obstruction, and infections.
Causes
Life-threatening Causes
- Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no life-threatening causes of disease name, however complications resulting from untreated disease name is common.
- Life-threatening causes of [symptom/manifestation] include [cause1], [cause2], and [cause3].
- [Cause] is a life-threatening cause of [disease].
Common Causes
Common causes of Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) may include:[1][2][3]
- Genetic mutations
- Brain stem anomalies
- Cardiac ion channel defects
- [Cause2]
- [Cause3]
OR
- [Disease name] is caused by an infection with [pathogen name].
- [Pathogen name] is caused by [pathogen name].
Less Common Causes
Less common causes of Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) include:
- Position of the infant especially in the prone position
- Infections
- [Cause3]
Genetic Causes
- [Disease name] is caused by a mutation in the [gene name] gene.
