Sudden infant death syndrome:
Signs and symptoms
(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))
Although parents find some victims wedged in crib corners or with blankets wrapped around their heads, autopsies rule out suffocation as the cause of death. Autopsy shows a patent airway, so aspiration of vomitus isn’t the cause of death. Typically, SIDS babies don’t cry out and show no signs of having been disturbed in their sleep. However, their positions or tangled blankets may suggest movement just before death, perhaps due to terminal spasm.
Depending on how long the infant has been dead, a SIDS baby may have a mottled complexion with extreme cyanosis of the lips and fingertips or pooling of blood in the legs and feet that may be mistaken for bruises. Pulse and respirations are absent, and the diaper is wet and full of stool.

Sudden infant death syndrome:
Signs and symptoms
(Handbook of Diseases)
Although parents find some victims wedged in crib corners or with blankets wrapped around their heads, autopsies rule out suffocation as the cause of death. Even when frothy, blood-tinged sputum is found around the infant’s mouth or on the crib sheets, an autopsy shows a patent airway, so aspiration of vomitus isn’t the cause of death.
