Soft infant carriers such as slings have become extremely popular in the west and are usually considered safe. We report 19 cases of sudden unexpected death in infancy (SUDI) linked to infant carrier. Most patients were healthy full-term babies less than 3 months of age, and suffocation was the most frequent cause of death.
Infant carriers represent an underestimated cause of death by suffocation in neonates.
• Sudden unexpected deaths in infancy linked to infant carrier have been only sparsely reported.
• We report a series of 19 cases strongly suggesting age of less than 3 months as a risk factor and suffocation as the mechanism of death.
柔软的婴儿背带如吊带在西方变得极其流行,通常被认为是安全的。我们报告了19例与婴儿背带相关的婴儿猝死综合征(SUDI)病例。大多数患者是健康的足月儿,年龄小于3个月,窒息是最常见的死亡原因。
婴儿背带是新生儿窒息死亡的一个被低估的原因。
• 与婴儿背带相关的婴儿猝死综合征报告较少。
• 我们报告了一系列19例病例,强烈提示年龄小于3个月是一个危险因素,窒息是死亡机制。
