Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is the third most frequent cause of infant mortality in the United States (US), which kills 3500 infants a year and accounts for 8% of all infant deaths. The study aims to evaluate mothers' practices of preventing SIDS in Holy Karbala City and to find if there is a relationship between the mothers' practices regarding the prevention of SIDS and demographic variables.Methods: This descriptive study was conducted at primary healthcare centers in Holy Kerbala City, Iraq (PHCCs). A total of 300 mothers answered a specific study questionnaire. The data were collected and analyzed statistically. The study was conducted on women who attend immunization units in PHCCs within the city of Holy Karbala. Both participants and PHCCs were selected randomly. A questionnaire study was constructed by an investigator based on previous studies in addition to the investigator's experiences. The questionnaire included two parts, the first was about mothers' sociodemographic characteristics and the second part reported practices about safe sleep for the child. The SPSS software, version 26 was used to analyze and interpret the data.Results: Mothers had a good level of practice in SIDS prevention with an Mean±SD of 16.6±2.7 and a total score of good practice (14.9±22). There is a significant relationship between mothers' practices concerning their level of education, occupational status, and smoking status (P=0.001). However, there is a non-significant relationship between the mothers' practices and the age, number of children, residency, and socioeconomic status (P>0.05).Discussion: SIDS is the sudden death of an infant under 1 year of age that cannot be explained following a thorough case investigation. This study shed light on the mothers' practices in the prevention of SIDS in holy Kerbala City and found that mothers had a good level of practice in SIDS prevention regardless of their ages, number of children, residency, and socioeconomic status. To raise public awareness of SIDS, a comprehensive health education program should be put in place through mass media and booklets. Additionally, nursing staff must adhere to safe sleep standards, notably the supine posture. They should especially educate new and inexperienced moms about these measures during the antenatal period and after delivery.

“…And based on our results, it was found that with higher age, the mother’s knowledge about this syndrome decreases. It was the same as El-deen et al [ 21 ] study which reported nearly three-quarters of mothers were aged >20–30 years old. And Bezerra et al [ 22 ] also found that the majority of unaware mothers were aged >20 years old.…”

BACKGROUND: Sudden infant death syndrome is the third leading cause of infant death in the first year of life and is one of the most important health problems around the world. The exact etiology of this phenomenon is not clear yet, but some risk factors, especially prone sleep positions, have been described. Fortunately, by modifying some environmental factors, the SIDS incidence might be decreased. Mothers’ and caregivers’ knowledge about this neglected event could be an important factor in determining SIDS prevalence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the pediatric and neonatal specialty clinic of Bahar Shahroud Hospital in 2020. Five hundred and twenty-seven pregnant women of reproductive age (18 to 45 years) were included in the study. Assessment of mothers’ knowledge was done using a sudden infant death syndrome risk questionnaire. Statistical analysis of data was performed using independent t-test, Chi-square, and logistic regression. RESULTS: The number of 527 pregnant women of childbearing age participated in our study. 81.9% were under 35 years old. According to the study, factors such as maternal age, mother’s level of education, number of pregnancies, and history of previous infant death syndrome had a significant relationship with the mother’s level of knowledge about infant death syndrome. The findings showed that the mother’s age is over 35 years old during pregnancy (CI: 0.95-0.46-OR: 1.53) and the level of education under a diploma (CI: 3.13-1.6: 06, OR: 1.86), and increasing parity is associated with a lower level of knowledge about infant death syndrome. CONCLUSION: According to mothers’ lack of knowledge about SIDS and the availability of simple and cost-effective methods to prevent SIDS, improving mothers’ knowledge about this important event in pregnancy and postpartum, educational sessions are crucial.
