    Abstract:
    The 2006 annual report of the Regional Infant and Child Mortality Review Committee (RICMRC) is attached. This committee's mission is to review infant and child deaths so that information can be transformed into action to protect young lives. The 2006 review region includes South Dakota's Minnehaha, Turner, Lincoln, Moody, Lake, McCook, Union, Hansen, Miner and Brookings counties. Although there was only one death meeting the criteria for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) in our region, there were five infant deaths associated with unsafe sleeping environments that either caused or potentially caused these infants' deaths. We need to continue to promote the "Back to Sleep" campaign message of not only placing infants to sleep on their backs, but also making sure infants are put down to sleep on safe, firm sleeping surfaces and dressed appropriately for safe room temperatures.
