Protecting children from hearing loss: Drew Brees sets a good example Kudos to New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees for his team’s Super Bowl win, his MVP award, and his decision (no doubt abetted by his wife) to put noise-reducing headphones on his one-year-old son, Baylen. When the ecstatic father lifted the adorable child aloft yesterday after his team’s big 31-17 win against the Indianapolis Colts, parents across the U.S. and elsewhere got a clear message: Protect your children’s hearing in noisy environments .

Recall widened: Maxi-Cosi infant car seats In the summer of 2009, Dorel Juvenile Group recalled more than 28,000 infant car seats because the shell could become detached from the base. Recalled then were certain models of Dorel's Maxi-Cosi Mico infant seats . Today, that recall was broadened to include even more Maxi-Cosi seats—now including those manufactured for four months after the previously recalled seats. The affected products include Maxi-Cosi Mico infant child restraint systems with the model numbers 22-371 HFL, JUC, LMD, PNG, and ORE, and 22-372 TTH. It also includes the base of the Maxi-Cosi Mico infant child restraint system with the model number 22-515 BLK. The items were produced from February 18, 2008 through June 28, 2008. (See the image above—or Dorel’s Maxi-Cosi “safety notice” —to learn where to find the manufacturing sticker on this seat.) According to the recall notice on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Web site, interference between the restraint system’s mounting bracket and the base, caused by warping of the base or inadequate mating between the shell and the base mounting bracket, can result in difficulty attaching or detaching the shell from the base. If the shell is improperly mounted to the base, the child could be injured in the event of a crash. See the recall notice on the product’s Web site, as well. Dorel will notify all registered owners of the problem and send a free remedy kit with instructions. For more information, non-registered and registered owners may also contact Dorel at 1-877-657-9546, or NHTSA’s Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153).
