Massachusetts Researchers Reveal New Information on SIDS

Posted on Feb 05, 2010

February 5, 2010 - Cambridge, Mass. - A recent study has indicated that babies who succumb to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, or SIDS, tend to possess a serotonin deficiency, affecting several of their body's responses.

According to Medscape, low levels of serotonin may affect an infant's responses to blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, carbon dioxide, and breathing. If the affected infant lies face down, the risk is high that he or she will repeatedly inhale and exhale the carbon dioxide.

Infants that are most at risk for SIDS are those who have a low level of serotonin, sleep face down, and are still within the first year of life, which is a significant period of child development.

These findings were discovered by researchers at the Children's Hospital Boston and Harvard Medical School in Massachusetts. In the study, about 88% of SIDS cases involved at least 2 major risk factors, such as heavy exposure to cigarette smoke or recent illness.

Current research and child safety standards say that one of the greatest ways to decrease the risk of SIDS is to place the baby on his back instead of stomach. While we are grateful to the Massachusetts researchers who have devoted so much time to protecting children, we understand that for families already affected by SIDS, the research comes too late.
