Amends Coroner Division of the Counties Code. Requires an autopsy of an infant under one year of age (rather than 2 years of age) who has died suddenly and unexpectedly and the circumstances concerning the death are unexplained following investigation (rather than just unexplained). Replaces references to sudden infant death syndrome with references to both sudden unexpected infant death and sudden infant death syndrome in provisions about reporting suspected cases and identification on the death certificate. Provides that if the cause of death is listed as sudden unexpected infant death, environmental factors, such as the condition of the infant's sleep environment, shall be noted on the death certificate when available.
