The AMERICAN ACADEMY of PEDIATRICS hasrecommended since 1992 that infants be placed to sleepon their backs to reduce the risk of sudden infant deathsyndrome (SIDS). Since that time, the frequency of pronesleeping has decreased from>70% to;20% of US in-fants, and the SIDS rate has decreased by>40%. How-ever, SIDS remains the highest cause of infant deathbeyond the neonatal period, and there are still severalpotentially modifiable risk factors. Although some ofthese factors have been known for many years (eg, ma-ternal smoking), the importance of other hazards, such assoft bedding and covered airways, has been demon-strated only recently. The present statement is intendedto review the evidence about prone sleeping and otherrisk factors and to make recommendations about strate-gies that may be effective for further reducing the risk ofSIDS.
