What is Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)?
"SIDS is called as Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. So it is the death of an infant who is less than 1 year. Most probably 1 to 1 year age group without any apparent cause suddenly dies at home then it is called as sudden infant death syndrome. So the baby is apparently normal before this unfortunate event. And the new term to avoid confusion for the SIDS is sudden unexplained infant death. So this condition is diagnosed by autopsy and evaluation of the death scene and also with the detailed history from the parents"
What are the Warning Signs & Symptoms of SIDS? | Dr. Vadije Praveen Rao
"So unfortunately there are no warning signs for the sudden infant death syndrome. This happens in a well baby and the condition is diagnosed after unexplained death only . So this is by doing a detailed family history and clinical history of the baby previously and then evaluation of the scene where the death happened. And there are no ways to predict the sudden infant death in a particular baby. So we have set of rules to prevent the problem . But we can't predict for a particular baby"
6 Tips for SIDS Prevention in babies | Dr.Vadije Praveen Rao
"SIDS can be prevented by safe sleeping practices. The baby should not be kept on the tummy for the sleep too. The baby should be kept on a firm bedding for the sleep and the soft bedding and soft objects on the bed like quilts the position holders or the bumpers for the cradle should not be used as they cause the suffocation for the baby. The baby skin be kept in the prone position that is the tummy position when the baby is active but should not be kept while the baby is sleep and this transport carriers that are soft bedded transport carrier for the baby should not be used at home. In fact they should not be used at all because they're very soft and once the baby turns the head to one side it will suffocate. Then the baby should not be shared bed with the mother or the parent in a separate cradle the room sharing can be advised but bed sharing is not advisable"
What is the Danger Period for SIDS? | Dr. Vadije Praveen Rao
"The danger period for SIDS is 2 to 4 months. When the baby's brain is developing at a rapid phase. The problem of SIDS comes because of the immaturity of the baby's brain when the baby gets the oxygen the baby's brain should respond in a way so that the baby can breathe well. But because of the immaturity they stop breathing. That is the main problem and one of the important reasons for the SIDS. So that's why after 4 months the cases of SIDS are reported less. The risk of SIDS drastically decreases after the 4 months age but still, it can happen up to 1 year"
Does Breastfeeding reduce SIDS? | Dr. Vadije Praveen Rao
"Breastfeeding is an important preventive step for the SIDS. Breastfeeding for the first 6 months has been shown to decrease the incidence of SIDS and along with breastfeeding, certain practices also help in decreasing the SIDS. For example, swaddling should not be done when the baby is in the prone position which means head down position. If the swaddling is done in the prone when the baby turns to one side the baby's nose will be blocked. So this is one of the important steps to decrease SIDS and some of the few practices like pacifier use in babies have been shown to decrease SIDS. But the pacifier or dummy nipple should be introduced only once the baby is at least 1 month and breastfeeding well. So this will help in the self-control of the baby and it has been shown to decrease SIDS rates. But infection control of the pacifier should be taken care but the concerns with the pacifier are contamination so it should be kept clean"
