This book was released on 2010 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without information from a complete death scene investigation involving sudden unexplained infant deaths, it is difficult to determine cause of death. Several studies provide evidence to support the hypothesis that SIDS and other SUID are more accurately diagnosed when information from a death scene investigation is used to make the diagnosis (Bass and Hass). Standardized protocols exist for coroners and child abuse experts; few if any are required for law enforcement death scene investigators. An analysis of twenty two infant deaths under one year of age was conducted within Trumbull County. An additional five cases from the text "The Death of Innocents" were reviewed. The data collection instrument was a data sheet that contained twenty three SUID/SIDS related factors, such as, demographics of victim and caretaker, manner and cause of death, infant health, and death scene related factors. Resulting data was analyzed than tested for statistical correlation based on the use of a protocol in relation to the ruling of SIDS or none SIDS. An extensive literature review is offered. It reviews all of the factors used in the data collection instrument. Past and current national and international research and theory on SUID and SIDS is cited. Overall it appears that in the absence of a protocol being used the ruling was more likely SIDS or asphyxia than other rulings of cause of death. Other factors that were correlated with cause of death are age of infant at time of death, prenatal development, and health of infant prior to death.

Book excerpt: The sudden and unexpected death of a seemingly healthy infant sets in motion a number of linked processes with potentially complex and far-reaching ramifications. While individuals, families and communities grapple with the shock and heartbreak associated with the loss of a young life, a chain of multidisciplinary investigative responsibilities is initiated to address the question of causation. Currently, very little is known about how infant death investigations are carried out, and perhaps more importantly, how variability within structures and processes influence individual or aggregate case outcomes. The purpose of this study was to examine the lived experiences of law enforcement officials charged with investigating sudden unexpected infant deaths (SUID) in nine Pacific Northwest jurisdictions. Data collected from open-ended, semi-structured interviews (n=26) revealed three dynamic and interrelated tensions experienced by law enforcement during the process of infant death investigation. Study participants described navigating: 1) emotional situations when professional neutrality fails; 2) high-stakes under-resourced investigations; and 3) interactions with parents who must be considered simultaneously as victims and potential suspects. Ultimately, these tensions are amplified by multiple institutional constraints and hegemonic norms and values that characterize law enforcement as an occupational culture. Recommendations for mitigating these tensions also emerged from participants' narratives and were considered in the context of greater law enforcement culture. These recommendations include: 1) Recognizing the exceptionality of infant death investigation; 2) Prioritizing the process of infant death investigation; 3) Clearly defining and delineating roles and responsibilities; and, 4) Developing specialized multi-agency response teams. Overall, this research reveals law enforcement as much more than the oversimplified and caricaturized, aggressive figures commonly portrayed in popular and mass media. Through their own narratives, we see officers struggling to manage one of the many difficult roles they must play. Their stories also reveal occupational norms and values that serve them well in other circumstances, but falter in the context of infant death investigations. Ultimately, this research reveals that, with so much at stake and with all the varied and critical things we ask of law enforcement, we must turn a critical lens inward on the systems that both sustain and constrain the efficacy of this critical police function.
Download or read book SIDS Sudden Infant and Early Childhood Death written by Roger W. Byard and published by . This book was released on 2018-04 with total page 844 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume covers aspects of sudden infant and early childhood death, ranging from issues with parental grief, to the most recent theories of brainstem neurotransmitters. It also deals with the changes that have occurred over time with the definitions of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome), SUDI (sudden unexpected death in infancy) and SUDIC (sudden unexpected death in childhood). The text will be indispensable for SIDS researchers, SIDS organisations, paediatric pathologists, forensic pathologists, paediatricians and families, in addition to residents in training programs that involve paediatrics. It will also be of use to other physicians, lawyers and law enforcement officials who deal with these cases, and should be a useful addition to all medical examiner/forensic, paediatric and pathology departments, hospital and university libraries on a global scale. Given the marked changes that have occurred in the epidemiology and understanding of SIDS and sudden death in the very young over the past decade, a text such as this is very timely and is also urgently needed.

Book excerpt: This publication reviews medicolegal investigation of sudden, unexpected pediatric deaths, focusing on systems and procedures in the United States and those deaths which remain incompletely understood or entirely unexplained. It discusses the evolution of our understanding and practice in the area of sudden, unexpected pediatric death investigation, covering the changing philosophies and medical theories as to causation and changing investigative and certification strategies. Procedural guidance for investigation, autopsy and ancillary testing, certification and reporting, and key considerations for prevention, research and working with family members and other professional team members are provided.The path to production of this publication began in 2016 when the National Association of Medical Examiners received a scientific grant from the SUDC Foundation called "Sudden Death in Pediatrics: Consensus for Investigation, Certification, Research Direction and Family Needs" to convene, in collaboration with the American Academy of Pediatrics, an expert panel to identify and discuss the diverse issues and limitations surrounding these deaths and build a foundation for national consensus. The combined effort of a panel of medical examiners, pediatricians, and federal agency representatives, representing the diverse interests of death investigation, autopsy performance, certification, clinical subspecialties (pediatrics, neurology, cardiology, child abuse, injury prevention, infectious diseases, genetics, and metabolic diseases), family needs, prevention, and epidemiology, culminated in this publication.
