Safe Sleep

• Stop using all inclined sleepers, warns federal safety agency as death toll hits 73

Consumers should stop using all inclined sleepers — even models that have not been recalled — because of the risk of accidental suffocation, federal safety regulators said Friday.

 

The warning from the Consumer Product Safety Commission comes after months of controversy over the popular infant-sleeping devices. It began in April with the recall of millions of Fisher-Price’s Rock 'n Plays because of safety concerns. It culminated in the release of a study that found the product’s design inherently dangerous.  Learn more about safe sleep spaces and infant safe sleep at www.michigan.gov/safesleep.
