This was the first collaborative review of Sudden Unexpected Deaths in Infancy in Wales. It was a joint initiative between Child Death Review Programme (CDR) and All Wales Perinatal Survey (AWPS). The review included a brief overview of all sudden deaths under the age of two, but the main focus was upon those which were unexplained sudden infant deaths (termed uSID for the purposes of this review).
