Sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) probably represents a number of specific processes rather than one disease, the causes of which have so far eluded scientists. Various hypotheses as to cause are discussed, as is the role of the emergency physician. Also considered are apparently life-threatening events such as prolonged sleep apnea, laryngeal-induced apnea, gastroesophageal reflux-induced apnea, and seizure-associated apnea.
婴儿猝死综合征（SIDS）可能代表了一些特定的过程，而非单一疾病，其病因至今仍未被科学家们所掌握。文中讨论了关于病因的各种假说，以及急诊医生的作用。还考虑了一些明显危及生命的事件，如长时间睡眠呼吸暂停、喉部诱发的呼吸暂停、胃食管反流诱发的呼吸暂停以及与癫痫相关的呼吸暂停。
