Shaken Baby Syndrome and Prevention Project
Shaken Baby Syndrome and the prevention project coordinated by the UCSF Women’s Health Resource Center. Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) kills or seriously injures many newborns and infants annually. According to state data resources, San Francisco documented about 60 SBS incidents annually in recent years.

The increasing incidence of infant victims of Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) is a tragedy for the child, the family and the community. Shaken Baby Syndrome is a collection of signs and symptoms resulting from violently shaking an infant or child. This momentary loss of control by the caregiver can lead either to the death of the baby or to life-long permanent and severe neurological damage.

Brian Auerbach interviews Joanna Laffey of the UCSF Women’s Resource Center and training coordinator of the SF Shaken Baby Syndrome Prevention Project, Dr. Chris Stewart, a pediatrician at San Francisco General Hospital and UCSF and Scott Jucean, a parent with direct experience and a statewide leader in shaken baby syndrome prevention.
