sleeper adult bed and the bedside sleeper 12 incidents fabricsided enclosed openings 11 and consumer disassembly 6 incidents In its NPR the CPSC looked into the possibility of imposing additional requirements for bedside sleepers like the requirement that they meet the minimum side height requirement for bassinets or at a minimum meet the maximum height requirement for the lowered side rail However the CPSC concluded that such requirements would not be efficient or feasible to reduce the amount of instances in which infants were entrapped between the bedside sleeper and the adult bed A majority of the incidents mentioned in the NPR included multiuse bedside beds which can be converted into other types of equipment like play yards or bassinets Several commenters suggested the CPSC include a different clause to the proposed rule for bedside sleepers with multiple uses that would allow them to meet the minimum side height requirements for bassinets using a removable attachment Attachments can be permanently connected or removed when the item is not being used as a baby bassinet The CPSC is examining these and other comments that were received in response to its NPR on sleepers who are bedside The Commission will consider these comments when voting on the final rule that is expected to be released in November 2021
