Abstract

* The joint agency approach should be used to investigate all unexpected child deaths

* Practitioners should ensure that final case discussions are not unduly delayed so that parents do not have to wait several months for information on the cause of their child's death.

* All bereaved parents should be given the opportunity to have a follow-up appointment with the paediatrician responsible for managing sudden unexpected death in children.
