Abstract

Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is a definition that includes very often a broad group of sudden unexplained infant deaths (SUID); it may includes those which could be related to mechanical asphyxia (accidentally or murder) too. The Randall’s classification focuses more attention on environmental risks of possible asphyxia in forensic setting. The AA review some SUID cases by applying this classification and they verify it lets exhaustive evaluations more than other in the determination of manner of death.
