Sudden infant death syndrome: Treatment
(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))

If the parents bring the infant to the emergency department (ED), the physician will decide whether to try to resuscitate him. An “aborted SIDS” infant is one who’s found apneic and is successfully resuscitated. Such an infant, or any infant who had a sibling stricken by SIDS, should be tested for infantile apnea. If tests are positive, a home apnea monitor may be recommended. Because the infant usually can’t be resuscitated, however, treatment focuses on providing emotional support for the family.
