Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The purpose of this paper was to define the outlook of parents' associations of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Since these groups appear to be the principal recipients of a multifactorial dilemma, their expectations drive not only support teams but also research through fund-raising activities and programming conferences. These points may be summed up as: (1) characterizing the syndrome and generating information useful for decreasing the phenomenon; (2) anticipating parental responses and managing critical incident stresses; (3) helping researchers to describe the population and the scenario of a probable SIDS infant; (4) creating a preventive system; and (5) motivating potential financial supporters.
