The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of analytical design on the variability of published results in studies on sudden infant death syndrome
Abstract:
AIMS: To investigate the influence of analytical design on the variability of published results in studies of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). METHODS: The results of a prospective case-control study, of 203 cases of SIDS, and 622 control infants are presented. All variables significant on univariate analysis were included in a multivariate model analysed in nine stages, starting more...

The aim of this study was to measure the effect of bed-sharing during the last sleep period on risk factors for sudden infant death syndrome
Abstract:
BACKGROUND: It is unclear if it is safe for babies to bed share with adults. In Ireland 49% of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) cases occur when the infant is bed-sharing with an adult. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of bed-sharing during the last sleep period on risk factors for SIDS in Irish infants. DESIGN: An 8 year (1994-2001) population based case control study of 287 SIDS more...

The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for sudden infant death syndrome in the sleeping environment of Irish infants
Abstract:
AIM: To identify risk factors for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) in the sleeping environment of Irish infants. METHODS: A five year population based case-control study with parental interviews conducted for each case and three controls matched for age, place of birth, and last sleep period. A total of 203 SIDS cases and 622 control infants born 1994-98 were studied. RESULTS: In a more...

The aim of this study was to assess if Irish parents follow the currently recommended childcare guidelines to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and to examine factors that may have an impact on their acceptance
Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Factors that place an infant at increased risk of sudden infant death include the prone sleep position, overheating and parental smoking, while practices such as bottle-feeding, co-sleeping and the use of pacifiers remain controversial. Major publicity campaigns have been undertaken, which have included the distribution of printed material and extensive media coverage. AIMS: more...

The aim of this study was to examine the epidemiological factors associated with Sudden Infant Death Syndrome to give a general profile of SID cases occurring in Ireland between the years 1993 to 1997
Abstract:
This paper examines some epidemiological factors associated with SIDS to give a general profile of SIDS cases occurring in Ireland between the years 1993 to 1997. There has been a dramatic decrease in the incidence of the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) in the Republic of Ireland in the last decade from an average rate of 2.2/1000 live-births in the 1980s to 0.8/1000 live-births in more...
