Children’s Deaths Prompt Recall of Toy Dart Gun Sets

On May 17, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall of 1.8 million toy dart gun sets due to an aspiration hazard.  The toy dart gun sets were sold exclusively at Family Dollar stores.  A 9-year-old boy in Chicago, Illinois and a 10-year-old boy in Milwaukee died after chewing on the plastic toy dart; the small suction cup part of the dart cut off their breathing.
The toy dart guns were available for purchase at Family Dollar stores nationwide from September 2005 through January 2009 for about $1.50. 
Consumers should immediately take the toy target sets from children and discard them. 

Two Strangulation Deaths Prompt Summer Infant to Recall Video Baby Monitors with Cords

On February 11, 2011, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced a recall of about 1.7 million video baby monitors with electrical cords manufactured by Summer Infant Inc. The cords can present a strangulation hazard to infants and toddlers if placed too close to a crib. Because of this serious strangulation risk, parents and caregivers should never place these and other corded cameras within three feet of a crib. This recall is designed to provide new on-product labels for electric cords and instructions to consumers with the recalled video monitors distributed between January 2003 and February 2011.
Over the past year, there have been reports of two strangulation deaths of infants with the electrical cords of Summer Infant video baby monitors. In March 2010, a 10-month-old girl from Washington, D.C. strangled in her crib in the electrical cord of a Summer Infant video monitor. The monitor camera had been placed on top of the crib rail. In November 2010, CPSC received a report of a six-month-old boy from Conway, S.C., who strangled in the electrical cord of a baby monitor placed on the changing table attached to the crib. In January 2011, the CPSC learned the product involved was a Summer Infant video baby monitor.
There was also a near strangulation incident in which a 20-month old boy from Pittsburgh, PA was found in his crib with the camera cord wrapped around his neck. The Summer Infant monitor camera was mounted on the wall, but the child was still able to reach the cord. He was freed from the cord without serious injury.
The baby monitors were sold at major retailers, mass merchandisers, and juvenile products stores nationwide for between $60 and $300. They were sold in more than 40 different models, including handheld, digital, and color video monitors. All video monitors include both the camera (placed in the baby's room) and the hand-held device (some models have two hand-held devices) that enable the caregiver to see and/or hear the baby from a specific distance. The brand "Summer" is found on the product.
