The prone or side sleep position can increase the risk of rebreathing expired gases, resulting in hypercapnia and hypoxia.54, — , 57 The prone position also increases the risk of overheating by decreasing the
rate of heat loss and increasing body temperature compared with infants sleeping supine.58, 59 Recent evidence suggests that prone sleeping alters the autonomic control of the infant cardiovascular
system during sleep, particularly at 2 to 3 months of age, 60 and can result in decreased cerebral oxygenation.61 The prone position places infants at high risk of SIDS (odds ratio [OR]: 2.3 — 13.1).62, — , 66 However, recent studies have demonstrated that the SIDS risks associated with side and prone position
are similar in magnitude (OR: 2.0 and 2.6, respectively) 63 and that the population - attributable risk reported for side sleep position
is higher than that for prone position.65, 67 Furthermore, the risk of SIDS
is exceptionally high for infants who
are placed on their side and found on their stomach (OR: 8.7).63 The side sleep position
is inherently unstable, and the probability of an infant rolling to the prone position from the side sleep position
is significantly greater than rolling prone from the back.65, 68 Infants who
are unaccustomed to the prone position and
are placed prone for sleep
are also at greater risk than those usually placed prone (adjusted OR: 8.7 — 45.4).63, 69,70 Therefore, it
is critically important that every caregiver
use the supine sleep position for every sleep period.
