The conclusion was obtained after Cote and colleagues, for 10years researching the babies who died were seated in the backseat of the car.


Of the total 409 infants who died without known cause, as much as 3% of the infants died while in a sitting position in the backseat of the car.

According to Cote, by comparing the level of oxygen in the blood of infants between sitting and lying positions, the baby should only be known to be in a sitting position is not more than 1 hour. Over time, the baby's airway will be disrupted so that the contributing cause of death.
