Abstract:
When a baby under the age of one happens to die unexpectedly in his sleep, it is often referred to as a sudden, unexpected death. After these cases of death are medically investigated, it is usually established that they are fatal sleep accident - a situation where a baby suffocates or is trapped/strangled by things in the sleeping environment; or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome - SIDS - a diagnosis used when medical research cannot find the cause of a baby's death.
