 CPSC, Graco Children’s Products Announce New Safety Instructions to Prevent Injuries with Portable Play Yards with Raised Changing Tables
 

WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Graco Children’s Products Inc., of Exton, Pa., is providing new instructions for about 538,000 “Pack ‘n Play” portable play yards with raised changing tables. When children are placed in these portable play yards when the changing table is still in place, they can crawl under and lift the table up. If this occurs, a child’s head and neck can become trapped between the changing table and the play yard rail, causing a strangulation hazard. The recall is designed to warn consumers of this hazard, and to provide warning labels to affix to the changing tables.

The commission and Graco are aware of the death of a 13-month-old girl, who strangled when her neck became trapped between the Pack ‘n Play rail and the raised changing table.

Only “Pack ‘n Play” portable play yards with raised changing tables are part of this recall. They also are sold with an infant bassinet. “GRACO” and “Pack ‘n Play” are written on the side of the play yard. These play yards have model numbers 2016, 35235, or model numbers that begin with 9531 or 9533. The last three digits of the model number will vary. The model number can be found on a label on the white plastic center cone under the play yards. “MADE IN CHINA” also is written on the bottom label. Models 2016, 35235, 9531 and 9533 that are currently sold at retail and that have green stickers on the boxes, indicating that the unit has been modified, are not recalled.

Discount, department and juvenile product stores nationwide sold these portable play yards from October 2001 through September 2003 for between $99 and $119.

Consumers should never place a child in these portable play yards when the changing table is still in place. Consumers should immediately contact Graco to receive a free warning label to be affixed to the changing table. Consumers can contact Graco at (800) 233-1546 anytime, or visit the firm’s Web site at www.gracobaby.com

Danger of Unsafe Crib Bedding

 A May 18, 2001  directed to parents and caregivers raised concerns about the dangers of loose or oversized sheets in babies cribs - see Dangers of Crib Sheets.  A July 12, 2001 Consumer Product Safety Commission press release detailed a report on deaths associated with playpens - See Dangers of Soft Bedding in Playpens. Spot checks conducted by the National Safe Kids Campaign found that many Hotels use adult size sheets and blankets for cribs, posing a risk of strangulation and suffocation.  See Unsafe Cribs in Hotels.

 UNSAFE CRIBS AND PLAYYARDS IN HOTELS

The Consumer Product Safety Commission and the National Safe Kids Campaign announced in February of 2000 that a recent spot check conducted by the National Safe Kids Campaign "found unsafe cribs and play yards in 80% of hotels and motels visited".

It was estimated in the announcement "that children under the age of 2 spend more than 7 million nights per year in hotels, motels and resorts".

Heather Paul, Executive Director of the National Safe Kids Campaign said "this information assessment simply raises a red flag for the hotel industry that they might unknowingly be putting babies at risk".

Many hotels and resorts do not keep abreast of recall notices and safety information for cribs.  As well, the staff involved in setting up cribs may not even been aware that recalled or unsafe cribs, improper bedding, placement of cribs or simply not having cribs available may present a danger to these young guests.  These factors also create a liability risk for the hotel.

Another danger that may be present with hotel cribs is the risk that hotel cribs may be disposed of in an unsafe manner or donated to a local shelter as a well-meaning gesture.  Improper disposal of cribs not only presents a risk to the children that may be the recipients of the cribs but also presents a liability issue to hotels.  .

Dangers of Crib Sheets

The following press release was issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission on May 18, 2001.

Consumer Product Safety Commission Safety Alert

May 18, 2001, Sheets in cribs or beds can sometimes be hazardous to babies. Since 1984, CPSC has learned of the deaths of 17 babies, most under 12 months old, who suffocated or strangled primarily when they became entangled in sheets in their cribs or beds. Two of these deaths related to fitted crib sheets.

CPSC staff has worked actively to strengthen safety requirements for fitted crib sheets. Consumers soon will see warning labels on fitted crib sheets stressing the importance of a secure fit on crib mattresses. CPSC staff and industry also are working together to improve the fit of these sheets on mattresses.

To prevent tragedies, parents and caretakers can take the following precautions to ensure a safer sleeping environment for their young children.

  • Make sure crib sheets fit snugly on a crib mattress and overlap the mattress so it cannot be dislodged by pulling on the corner of the sheet.
  • Never use an adult sheet on a crib mattress; it can come loose and present an entanglement hazard to young children.
  • Place a baby on his/her back on a firm, tight-fitting mattress in a crib meeting current safety standards.
  • Remove pillows, quilts, comforters, and sheepskins from the crib.

DANGERS OF SOFT BEDDING IN PLAYPENS

The following excerpt is from a press release issued by the Consumer Product Safety Commission on July 12, 2001.  Go to Crib Safety News for full press release.

"Report Finds Soft Bedding a Factor in Playpen Deaths
CPSC ...

July 12, 2001, WASHINGTON, D.C - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) released a report (pdf) today on deaths in playpens. Since 1988, CPSC has reports of more than 200 babies who died while in playpens. In almost 100 of these deaths, soft bedding or improper or extra mattresses were present in the playpen and the babies died of suffocation or Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). More than 70 percent of these deaths were to babies less than 12 months old. Twenty-six of the playpen deaths occurred in a daycare setting.

Over the years, playpens, portable cribs and play yards have evolved into virtually identical products. Parents use playpens today as places for babies to both sleep and play. 

For years, CPSC has warned about the dangers of soft bedding such as quilts, comforters and pillows in cribs. Soft bedding can become molded around an infant's face and cause suffocation. As many as one-third of baby deaths attributed to SIDS, in fact, may be suffocation in soft bedding.

"Many parents and caregivers know the dangers of soft bedding in cribs," said CPSC Chairman Ann Brown. "This study shows, for the first time, that the same dangers exist when using pillows, quilts, and comforters in playpens."

The findings emphasize the need for caregivers to be aware that the same safe sleeping guidelines that they follow for their babies' cribs should be followed in these playpens. That means placing baby on his back on a firm, flat mattress and not adding extra mattresses or any soft bedding, such as pillows, quilts, or comforters. "
