View Award Abstract

Sudden unexpected infant death or SUID is a major cause of infant death and a public health issue with little progress over the past 20 years. There was an initial decline in SUIDs following the 1992 policy statement by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the 1994 NIH led Back to Sleep campaign. The number of SUIDs has plateaued with nearly ten infants a day dying suddenly and unexpectedly. We received SUID Case Registry funding beginning in 2019. We have established a successful surveillance system for SUID in Cook County IL. Cook County is a widely diverse population of 5.2 million. It is the second most populous county in the United States that includes all of Chicago the nations third largest city. Our surveillance system is evidence that nearly every week in Cook County an infant dies suddenly and unexpectedly. SUID rates are over 14 times higher in Non Hispanic Black infants and nearly 3 times higher in Hispanic infants compared to white infants. Continuing surveillance through the established Cook County SUID CR will allow for ongoing high quality data collection as well as analysis and dissemination of the circumstances and factors regarding an infants sudden and unexpected death to inform prevention efforts. This is accomplished through our strong partnerships with the Cook County Medical Examiners Office and Cook Countys Child Death Review Teams as well as the city and the county and the states public health departments. We have successfully developed prevention approaches to the Chicago team of Cook County Sleep also known as CPASS Chicago. Our expanded public health and community outreach partners and activities will continue to be informed by the Cook County SUID CR to tailor prevention approaches that address both the upstream factors driving disproportionate infant mortality experienced by historically disinvested communities as well as optimizing the immediate risks posed by the infant sleep environment.
