Sudden Infant Death Syndrome


By Aldrich alfred at 2010-12-29 22:49:59
The Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or crib death is liable for the 0.543 death cases per 1000 live births is the United States as of the year 2005. Way back in the year 1992, SIDS cases had reached up to 4, 895 deaths. Year 2004, it did lessen a bit significantly, giving a number up to 2,247.

SIDS is regarded as multifactorial in origin. An article by McVea in Journal of Human Lactation in 2000 reviewed the literature published between 1966 and 1997.The overall conclusion was that breast feeding is associated with a 50% reduction in SIDS risk but the quality of the studies varied. Many of the studies did not exclude other confounding factors such as socioeconomic status, exposure to cigarette smoke, maternal education, or sleeping position.

Nitrates leach into the soil through the application of manure or ammonia fertilizers applied to the farmer's fields and from runoff of fecal material coming from feedlots and leaching into our septic tanks. When green plants can't take up the amount of fertilizers applied, the excess runs off and enters our water system.

However, there are statistics on this disease that suggest when SIDS is most likely to occur. In the children under one year of age, the majority of deaths seem to occur between the ages of two and four months. The alarming stat is that 90% of SIDS victims die before six months of age. After the sixth month, the chances of a child dying from SIDS greatly decreases.

Some other causes of SIDS have been linked to bacterial and respiratory infections in the infants. Of course like many other infant diseases, use of drugs, alcohol, or tobacco have also been said to be causes of SIDS. Because of sudden infant death syndrome, all parents are told to place the baby on his back until the baby is at the age where he or she can roll over front to back and back to front on their own.

The baby typically does not seem to show any sign of suffering and death occurs rapidly. In addition, SIDS is commonly known as crib death because of a strong link with sleep. It is estimated that 2,500 babies in the United States die of unknown causes every year.

Back sleeping should be encouraged in order to ensure the safety of your baby during sleep. Avoid placing your baby on his belly or his side. Though these position can seem to appear more comfortable - stomach sleeping and a side lying position during sleep can increase the risks of SIDS because there is greater chances of re-breathing the air they have exhaled in these positions which can make it difficult to get ample amounts of oxygen.

Stomach Sleeping: Although very popular, babies who are put to sleep on their stomachs have had a higher incidence of SIDS. Researchers have hypothesized that stomach sleeping puts pressure on a baby's jaw, and narrows the airway, hampering breathing.
