Shaken baby syndrome is a life-threatening condition that occurs when infants are violently moved back and forth sharply and quickly. Self-righting and transient exuberance are not related to this condition, while head-sparing refers to the phenomenon where blood is directed to the brain during periods of low oxygen, and is also not related to shaken baby syndrome.
