SUDDEN INFANT DEATH SYNDROME (literature review)

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)] is a sudden death from respiratory arrest in an apparently healthy infant or child under 1 year old, in which an autopsy does not determine the cause of death. Sometimes SIDS is called "cradle death" because it may not be preceded by any symptoms, often the child dies in his sleep. Risk factors in SIDS are divided into 2 main groups: modifiable and non-modifiable. The main hypotheses of thanatogenesis in SIDS are congenital defects and metabolism, immunological incompetence, serotonergic dysfunction, and cardiogenic mechanisms.
