Children have strangled to death on the cords of window blinds, shades, draperies and other window coverings, and this can happen in mere moments, even with an adult nearby. The safest option when young children are present is to go cordless.
Window cord strangulation is often silent, so parents or caregivers nearby may not realize that a tragedy is happening.
如果你无法把现有窗帘换为无绳的,美国消费品安全委员会建议:
- 尽量缩短拉绳, 从而去掉任何空悬的绳子。
- 把所有窗帘绳都放在孩子们接触不到的地方
- 确保窗帘绳锁卡器安装调整得当,以限制内部拉绳的移动
- 把窗帘和遮光帘的连续环路绳固定在地板或墙上。
- 把所有的婴儿床、床、家具和玩具都从窗户和窗帘绳附近搬开,最好搬到另一堵墙边。
