Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID) Prevention Program Webinars

This page contains webinars hosted by the AAP and the National Center for Fatality Review and Prevention on topics related to Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID).

Using Fatality Review Data to Drive Change

This webinar demonstrates how Fetal and Infant Mortality Review, Child Death Review (CDR) and pediatricians working together can benefit communities and improve maternal, infant, child and family outcomes. Guest speaker, Dr. Kyran Quinlan, Pediatric Medical Advisor at the Illinois Department of Health, shares how CDR connects with the Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID)-Case Registry and is used to inform prevention work to protect infants from SUID in a large urban area. While Dr. Christopher Gaw, Assistant Professor of Pediatrics Division of Emergency Medicine at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, shows how CDR data has been used to characterize fatal pediatric poisonings to support poison prevention and advocacy efforts.
