Nursing interventions aimed at reducing risks of SIDS.

J A Herda

Abstract

While researchers do not fully understand the causes of SIDS, there appears to be growing consensus that SIDS is most probably a multi-etiological phenomenon. Research literature regarding the prone sleeping position as a possible risk factor for SIDS will be discussed as will proposed etiological mechanisms related to this hypothesis. Implications of this new data for pediatric nursing practice will also be examined.
