Crib death, also called sudden infant death syndrome, is the unexpected death of an apparently healthy baby during sleep, without a cause that is easily explained. It is a sensitive topic around which there are care recommendations.
Safe sleep measures: It is recommended to lay the baby on their back, on a firm surface and without loose objects in the crib, as well as to maintain an environment free of tobacco smoke.
Support for families: Beyond the prevention recommendations, families may need guidance and support to resolve their doubts about the baby's care.
