The CPSC's NPR includes 24 incidents that are attributed to product issues, such as gaps between the bedside sleeper (adult bed) and the bedside sleeper (12 incidents) and enclosed openings with fabric sides (11) and consumer misassembly (6 incidents). In its NPR the CPSC looked into the possibility of introducing additional requirements to bedside sleepers. For instance, these products would have to meet the minimum side height requirements for bassinets, or at least the maximum height requirements for the lowered rail. However, the CPSC determined that these requirements would not be feasible or effective to reduce the number of incidents in which infants were entrapped between the bedside sleeper and an adult bed. A majority of the incidents reported in the NPR included multi-use bedside sleepers that could be converted into other modes such as bassinets and play yards. A number of commenters suggested that the CPSC add a second clause to the proposed rule for multi-use bedside sleepers which would permit them to meet minimum side height requirements for bassinets using an attachment that can be removed. This attachment can be permanently attached or removed when the product is not being used as a baby bassinet. The CPSC is reviewing the comments and other suggestions received in response to the NPR on sleep at night. The Commission will consider these comments when it votes on the final rule, which is expected to be issued in the month of November 2021.
