“…Of the studies that focused primarily on providers, four also included data on family practices and thus are also included in the summaries for family-focused studies [14,17,19,25]. Studies recruited parents or families in a health care setting, for example, from: hospitals after delivery [9,10,15,17,19,25,26,28,30,31,34], pediatric clinics [12,26,29], specific program participants [16,21], specific geographic communities [24], and prenatal clinics [38], or randomly sampling across a state [32]. Two studies identified families from multiple sources such as WIC programs, obstetricians, pediatricians, family physicians, healthcare clinics, social workers, and community organizations [13,18].…”

Sleep-related infant deaths remain a major public health issue. Multiple interventions have been implemented in efforts to increase adherence to safe sleep recommendations. We conducted a systematic review of the international research literature to synthesize research on interventions to reduce the risk of sleep-related deaths and their effectiveness in changing infant sleep practices. We searched PubMed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar for peer-reviewed articles published between 1990 and 2015 which described an intervention and reported results. Twenty-nine articles were included for review. Studies focused on infant caregivers, health care professionals, peers, and child care professionals. Targeted behaviors included sleep position, location, removing items from the crib, breastfeeding, smoke exposure, clothing, pacifier use, and knowledge of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Most articles described multi-faceted interventions, including: one-on-one or group education, printed materials, visual displays, videos, and providing resources such as cribs, pacifiers, wearable blankets, and infant t-shirts. Two described public education campaigns, one used an educative questionnaire, and one encouraged maternal note taking. Health professional interventions included implementing safe sleep policies, in-service training, printed provider materials, eliciting agreement on a Declaration of Safe Sleep Practice, and sharing adherence data. Data collection methods included self-report via surveys and observational crib audits. Over half of the studies utilized comparison groups which helped determine effectiveness. Most articles reported some degree of success in changing some of the targeted behaviors; no studies reported complete adherence to recommendations. Future studies should incorporate rigorous evaluation plans, utilize comparison groups, and collect demographic and collect follow-up data.

“…In terms of demographics of the studies targeting families, eleven studies specifically targeted females [9,10,13,15,19,24,26,28,32,34,38]. For the remaining studies that measured gender, the majority of studies included study samples that were over 80 % female [12,14,18,21,29,31].…”

“…Encouraging parents to sleep their infants in a supine position was associated with a fall in the US SIDS-rate from 1.2 to 0.53 per 1000 live births between 1992 and 2000 (Rasinski et al 2003). Repeated saturation of infant-care guidelines with the Back to Sleep message resulted in a very low national prevalence of prone infant sleep wherever implemented, although the national figures mask some cultural/ethnic differences in uptake of the Back to Sleep message, particularly in the US (Colson et al 2005;Hackett 2007;Von Kohorn et al 2010).…”

“…6 Mortality reductions from SIDS have stalled for more than a decade, 7 with only modest recent improvements despite ongoing public health efforts to affect the sleep environment and strategies aimed at high-risk groups. 8 Investigations of unexplained death have also changed since that time, with standardized death scene investigations 9 promising better ascertainment of lethal infant sleep environments. Research has also demonstrated diagnostic shift, 10 the use of alternative diagnostic coding reflecting a putative or uncertain role for asphyxia or sleep environment risk, without formal consensus on alternatives to the term SIDS.…”

Overall Postneonatal Mortality and Rates of SIDS

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

BACKGROUND: Reductions in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) are commonly attributed to modifications in infant sleep environments. Approaches to diagnosis in sudden infant death, death scene investigations, the prevalence of intrinsic risk factors for SIDS, and the potential influence of treatment-related factors on infant vulnerability have also changed. Understanding all contributory factors may help reduce residual SIDS rates.
