Approximately 25 percent of shaken baby victims die from their injuries. Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) is underreported because the effects on the brain aren’t always immediately seen, the abuse may not be reported, and perpetrators often lie to medical personnel about the cause of a baby’s injuries. Experts agree that awareness of SBS is critical for everyone who cares for an infant, responds to family emergencies, or trains future parents, babysitters and child care providers.

Materials included with the simulator describe the type and extent of injuries shaking can cause, list the many reasons babies cry, offer techniques to calm an inconsolable baby, and help participants establish a plan for managing those stressful times without harming an infant in their care.
