HOW TO PREVENT HOT CAR EMERGENCIES
Various strategies can help prevent hot car injuries and deaths in children.
Parents often do everything
within their means to keep
their children safe in and
outside of their homes. Throughout
the years, child safety seats
have helped reduce the risk of
serious injuries to children while
riding in vehicles. However, incidents
of hot car injuries and
deaths have increased.
The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration indicates
about 40 children a year die
from heatstroke after they were
left or became trapped in a car.
Roughly one child every 10 days
loses his or her life in a hot car.
The NHTSA also says there have
been more than 950 hot car deaths
among children since 1998. The
National Safety Council says
nearly every state has experienced
at least one death of a child succumbing
to heat stroke in a hot
car since 1998. The agency reports
that a record number of 53
children died after being left in
hot vehicles in 2018 and 2019.
Pediatric vehicular heatstroke
(PVH) poses a serious threat.
Health experts warn that a child’s
body temperature rises three to
five times faster than an adult’s.
When a child remains in a vehicle
without ample ventilation, that
child’s body temperature can rise
quickly, turning into a dangerous
situation. Heatstroke begins when
the core body temperature reaches
about 104 F.
Many children who were injured
or killed in PVH incidents have
parents and caregivers who are
thoughtful guardians. No one sets
out to “forget” their child in a
car. Since younger children sit
rear-facing in safety seats, sometimes
their presence is obscured.
Those who are rushing around or
parents with miscommunication
may not realize their child is in
the car seat. It is essential that
parents and caregivers get in the
habit of always checking the back
seat before locking the car doors.
Heeding some additional tips also
can prevent PVH.
• Leave your purse, wallet or another
item in the back seat so you
are forced to go in the back to retrieve
it. This is an added security
measure to check the back seat
and ensure the car seat is empty.
• Never leave a child in a vehicle
unattended for any length of time,
even if you only intend to run into
a store for a few minutes. Rolling
down the windows or parking the
car in the shade does little to adjust
the interior temperature of the
vehicle.
¥to remind you that a child is in
the back seat.
• Keep the car locked and keys out
of reach. Children being forgotten
in the car is not the only cause of
PVH incidences. Sometimes kids
hide or play in cars and become
trapped. The NHTSA says 25 percent
of PVH deaths occur after
kids gain access to unattended
vehicles.
• Be an observant bystander at all
times. If you see a child alone in a
vehicle, make sure the child is alright
and responsive, then attempt
to locate the parents. If the child
seems in distress, attempt to break
the window of the car and call for
emergency services immediately.
Instances of PVH and similar
accidents are not exclusive to
summertime. A car can become
hot quickly even if the temperature
outdoors seems relatively
mild, says Consumer Reports.
