J Cornwell et al. Med J Aust. .

Abstract

Nineteen families were interviewed after their loss of an infant by sudden infant death syndrome. Their bereavement responses are described. The outcome after 13 months is studied in terms of resumption of normal living, and health changes. The parents' perceptions of intervention are discussed, and recommendations are made about how best to help such families.
