Reported risk: The cords present a potential strangulation hazard to infants and toddlers if placed too close to a crib. Due to the serious strangulation risk, parents and caregivers should never place these monitors or other corded cameras within one meter (three feet) of a crib. Health Canada would like to remind parents to place cribs away from windows, curtains, blind cords, lamps, electrical plugs and extension cords. The baby's head could become caught in the cords, resulting in strangulation. Summer Infant has received two reports of strangulation deaths and one near strangulation incident occurring in the United States in the past year. Health Canada has not received any reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of these products.
