| Reason/Issue |
Following a period during which an active child had been left unattended in a 9003 Inspiration cot the child was found by a consultancy paediatrician with his top wrapped around his head with the clothing hanging from the cots latch mechanism. The child had lifted up the tubing/cable access latch, which is located on the top rail at the head or foot end of the cot and managed to get his sleeve caught on the latch. Upon trying to free himself the child managed to free his arms but was left with his clothing wrapped around his head, with the clothing still being caught on the top of the cot via the latch. The child was freed and no injuries were sustained. |
