Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Shaken Baby Syndrome is a form of abusive head trauma that occurs when an infant or young child is violently shaken, causing the brain to bounce within the skull and leading to permanent brain damage, which can result in heart rate, respiration, and temperature control issues. Fragile X, Down syndrome, and hippocampus dysfunction are not directly related to the symptoms described in the scenario.
