Prevent Hot Car Deaths with Car Seat Monitor

Here’s a shocking fact — about 38 kids die each year from heat stroke after being trapped inside hot cars. Sad but true, warmer weather comes with a higher risk of car seat heat stroke.

The good news is these awful incidents are absolutely preventable. Thanks to the new improved child car seat monitoring system, parents can now safely keep their little ones safely in the back seat.

Before delving any further, let’s understand the risk of car seat heat stroke deaths.

Cars heat up very fast. In fact, within just 10 minutes, the temperature inside a car can rise over 20ºF. Medically speaking, a child can die from heatstroke when their body temperature reaches 107ºF. This means that even a few minutes inside a hot car can put your child at risk.

Stay informed about the dangers of heat stroke. Being aware of the dangers will help you be more cautious; however, the unexpected may still happen.

Keep an eye out for the symptoms of heatstroke by looking for the following warning signs:

  • Hot and moist skin
  • Red hot dry skin
  • No sweating
  • Rapid pulse
  • Weak or slow pulse
  • Nausea
  • Confusion

Take action against car seat heatstroke

Car seat heatstroke is preventable and can be avoided. Here are a few tips to prevent this horrible accident from occurring:

Passive Reminders

Tip 1: Double check the front and back seat when you leave your car unattended

Tip 2: Remind yourself that your child is in the car — for instance you may place a stuffed animal or your child’s diaper in your line of sight

These good habits will surely help in preventing these warm weather child tragedies. To further ensure their safety, equip your child’s car seat with a high-quality child monitoring alarm to prevent inadvertent caregiver-child separations.
