Brief summary: Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is one of the leading causes of infant mortality in the postneonatal period, but it can be prevented and its incidence can be reduced by creating a safe sleep environment with modifiable risk factors. It is known that parents, infant care providers and healthcare professionals do not have sufficient knowledge about SIDS and safe sleep, and especially mothers exhibit many risky behaviors in terms of SIDS, such as using the wrong sleeping positions while putting their babies to sleep. Therefore, it is of critical importance to inform and raise awareness of parents on the issues of SIDS and safe sleep, which remain important today, on the premise of promoting public health.

Detailed description: Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is one of the leading causes of infant mortality in the postneonatal period, but it can be prevented and its incidence can be reduced by creating a safe sleep environment with modifiable risk factors. It is known that parents, infant care providers and health professionals do not have sufficient knowledge about SIDS and safe sleep, and especially mothers exhibit many risky behaviors in terms of SIDS, such as using the wrong sleeping positions while putting their babies to sleep. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to inform and raise awareness of parents on the issues of SIDS and safe sleep, which remain important today, on the premise of promoting public health. In addition, informing mothers about the risk factors to protect their babies from SIDS, encouraging them to create and maintain a safe sleep environment, and ensuring that they are pioneers in this regard are also of great importance in terms of sharing information with other infant care providers in their social life. SIDS occurs in the postpartum period and has high values in infant mortality rates. For this reason, it is predicted that awareness on this issue will be significantly increased by providing education to new mothers at the earliest period and that SIDS can be prevented significantly by providing safe sleep environments. At the same time, based on the effect of self-efficacy perceptions of new mothers on the care of the baby, it is thought that the training and counseling practice planned to be given to mothers about SIDS will have a positive effect on the self-efficacy perceptions of mothers. When the relevant literature was examined, it was found that there were not enough studies on this subject in our country.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of video-assisted Sudden Infant Death Syndrome prevention training program and counseling on mothers' knowledge level and self-efficacy.
