Modalités de prise en charge des morts inattendues du nourrisson à l'Institut médico-légal et au Centre de référence pour la mort inattendue du nourrisson du CHU de Montpellier et comparaison aux recommandations professionnelles

Brain imaging, infectious sampling and the analysis of the performed samples should be systematic at the IML. When the cause of death is not identified after medico-legal investigations, we suggest the case records should be transmitted to the CRMIN. An optimal management of SUDI requires taking better consideration of the current recommendations, especially at the IML. A close cooperation between the IML and the CRMIN, and raising awareness among magistrates are necessary prerequisites.
