Answer:

d. SIDS

Explanation:

SIDS stands for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome it is the most common thing from that list that a child would die from in an acute care facility (short-term care facility). Respiratory infections and cardiac diseases are less common deaths than SIDS. Children with congenital abnormalities either pass away soon after birth or live on medications and therapies for a longer period of time.
