Sleep-Related Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Among Infants Prenatally Substance Exposed

Sleep-related SUID across infants prenatally exposed versus nonexposed differ in sleep environment characteristics and contributory social vulnerability. Disproportionate sleep environment hazards (surface sharing, supervisor impairment) are identified among prenatally exposed infants that should compel targeted prevention efforts, including safe sleep messaging, discouraging surface sharing, and engaging support persons during impairment periods. Addressing social needs and family vulnerability are also paramount to increase access to health care, safe sleep education, and material resource provision.
