Many American homes now have at least one flat panel TV. Watching television is a fun way to entertain the family, but most parents are unaware of the very real safety hazard a flat panel TV can be for kids. They can easily tip over when bumped or pulled, toppling off furniture to cause injury or even death. Watch this online video TV Tipovers: What Every Parent Needs To Know.
According to a 2011 U.S. Consumer Study:
- A child is killed every three weeks from an unsecured TV
- Every 45 minutes a child visits an emergency room due to a TV tip-over related injury
- An estimated 17,000 people each year, the majority of which are children, are treated for injuries from TV tip-overs
- Reported cases are increasing every year
Those are scary statistics, especially if you are a parent and have an unsecured TV in your home. The good news is you can take precautions to increase safety for your children. SANUS, the leading designer and manufacturer of flat panel TV wall mounts, has partnered with Safe Kids Worldwide. By educating consumers on the risk of unsecured flat panel TV’s, SANUS and Safe Kids Worldwide offer safe solutions for families across the nation by reducing TV tip-over related injuries and fatalities.
