El síndrome infantil de muerte súbita (SIMS) tiene factores de riesgo y estrategias de prevención que los profesionales de la salud y la población en general desconocen.  Objetivo. Realizar un diagnóstico de los conocimientos sobre SIMS en Bogotá, D.C. a partir de la información obtenida de encuestas aplicadas en el 2010 a padres y cuidadores de menores de un año.  Materiales y métodos. Se entrevistaron 1 101 cuidadores de lactantes de diferentes estratos socioeconómicos. Los resultados se compararon por estrato y se realizó un análisis estadístico.  Resultados. Se evidenciaron conductas que ponen en riesgo de SIMS a los lactantes en Bogotá, D.C. El 2.1% de las madres confesaron fumar durante el embarazo, encontrándose mayor incidencia en los estratos socioeconómicos bajos (12.53%) que en los altos (3.10%). Del 77% que recibieron recomendaciones sobre la posición al dormir, el 8% reconocieron la importancia de esta para prevenir el SIMS. El 63% de los bebés fueron acostados en una posición de riesgo para este síndrome.  Conclusiones. Se demuestra el riesgo al que los bebés están expuestos debido a prácticas erróneas que se asocian con el conocimiento de sus cuidadores y las recomendaciones que estos reciben, incluso, de profesionales de la salud. Asimismo, se concluye que el riesgo aumenta en la población más pobre.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract  Introduction: The sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) is related to risk factors and prevention strategies that are unknown to health professionals and the general population.  Objective: To determine the knowledge on SIDS in Bogotá based on the information obtained through surveys conducted in 2010 to parents and caregivers of infants under one year of age.  Materials and methods: 1 101 caregivers of infants from different socioeconomic levels were evaluated through surveys. The results were compared by socioeconomic stratum, and a statistical analysis was performed.  Results: This study found some behaviors that increase the risk of SIDS in infants; for example, 2.1% of the interviewed mothers reported tobacco consumption during pregnancy, with greater involvement in lower socioeconomic strata (12.53%) compared to higher strata (3.10%). Out of 77% of participants who were given recommendations on sleeping positions for infants, 8% recognized that this fact is highly relevant to prevent SIDS. It was found that 63% of infants sleep in positions considered as risk factors for SIDS.  Conclusions: The results reflect the risk to which infants are exposed because of wrong practices associated with poor knowledge, and recommendations given, in many cases, by health professionals. Likewise, risk is higher among the poorest population.]]></p></abstract>
