About 1.5 million adult bed rails recalled in the U.S. and Canada after two suffocation deaths. Risks of entrapment and asphyxia highlighted by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Bed rails intended for safety have caused injuries and hundreds of deaths. Concerns raised due to incidents like heads and body parts getting trapped.
"Frightening, tragic, catastrophic injuries" seen in nursing home cases due to bed rail incidents, stated by Steven M. Levin from Levin & Perconti law firm.
Medline's recall marks the seventh since 2021 regarding bed rails, reflecting ongoing safety issues. CSPC took action due to manufacturers' non-compliance with safety standards.
