Do you know someone whose child was injured or died from asphyxia?
Asphyxia can occur for a number of reasons, at home or in other areas where a child or infant spends time. In the US, there are reports of approximately 100 deaths in children under the age of five every year. These deaths happen because of injuries due to asphyxia. Unfortunately, because of the higher rate of negligence with medical professionals and products being manufactured without proper testing standards, the numbers of injured or dying children due to asphyxia is growing to a higher ratio.
Asphyxia, otherwise known as suffocation, is described as lack of oxygen to the lungs, in other words not being able to breathe. Asphyxia is not pleasant for anyone, but when it comes to babies, it is even more heartbreaking when it happens, especially when it has to do with a product or negligent action.
