BCSC was developed to diagnose and treat
infants with crying,
sleeping, feeding and associated early behavior
problems by helping parents understand and adjust to the disruption caused
by having an
infant that is difficult to manage in the first few months or years of life.
A study of
infants in England indicated that supine
sleeping is not associated with an increase in significant morbidity outcomes, and the risk of respiratory
problems was reduced compared with that of prone sleepers.17 In Asian countries, aspiration is not a
problem despite the traditional practice of placing newborns to
sleep in the supine position.18 The review
by Malloy19 of US vital statistics mortality files for the years 1991 to 1996 showed no significant increase in the proportion of postneonatal mortality rate associated with aspiration, asphyxia, or respiratory failure.
Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that teaching parents to use graduated extinction (i.e., parent checks on and comforts their
infant at increasing time intervals but leaves the room before the
infant falls asleep) or adult fading (i.e., a parent places a camp bed or chair next to their
infant's cot, pats their
infant to
sleep for the first few nights, then gradually moves their camp bed or chair out of the
infant's bedroom over a period of weeks) reduces both
infant sleep problems and maternal depression symptoms.5 In toddlers, provision of a bedtime routine
by parents has also been shown to reduce
sleep problems.6
