In most cases, when a healthy infant younger than 1 year dies suddenly and unexpectedly, the cause is sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). SIDS is more common than infanticide. Parents of SIDS victims typically are anxious to provide unlimited information to professionals involved in death investigation or research. They also want and deserve to be approached in a nonaccusatory manner. This statement provides professionals with information and guidelines to avoid distressing or stigmatizing families of SIDS victims while allowing accumulation of appropriate evidence in potential cases of death by infanticide.
在大多数情况下，当一名1岁以下的健康婴儿突然意外死亡时，原因是婴儿猝死综合征（SIDS）。SIDS比杀婴更为常见。SIDS受害者的父母通常急于向参与死因调查或研究的专业人员提供尽可能多的信息。他们也希望并且应该以非指责性的方式与他们接触。本声明为专业人员提供信息和指导方针，以避免让SIDS受害者的家人感到痛苦或受到污名化，同时在可能的杀婴死亡案件中积累适当的证据。
