An infographic titled “Safe Sleep for Your Baby” explains the importance of safe infant sleep practices to reduce deaths from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and other sleep-related causes. It states that about 3,500 infants die suddenly and unexpectedly each year in the U.S., with most deaths linked to unsafe sleep. The Safe to Sleep® campaign, launched in 1994 (formerly Back to Sleep), aims to educate caregivers and health providers about reducing SIDS risk. A pie chart shows that the percentage of infants placed on their backs to sleep increased from 17% in 1993 to 73% in 2010. A bar chart shows SIDS deaths dropped from 4,073 in 1994 to 1,500 in 2016, while other sleep-related infant deaths rose from 903 to 1,500. The infographic notes that the U.S. SIDS rate dropped by over 50% between 1994 and 2016. It offers three key safe sleep recommendations: 1. Always place baby on their back to sleep. 2. Share your room (but not your bed) with the baby. 3. Use a firm, flat mattress in a safety-approved crib with only a fitted sheet. At the bottom are logos for the Safe to Sleep® campaign, the NIH, and social media icons, along with the website: http://safetosleep.nichd.nih.gov.
