Event Description
About two weeks ago, parents had reported that their child was burnt by the nocturnal enuresis alarm.Our clinic routinely recommends alarms to parents and they purchase what they like.In this particular case, parents ordered a malem enuresis alarm.The new device has malfunctioned and when the child was asleep, the alarm "short" out from the inside and overheated.This caused the batteries to explode inside the device and leak on the child¿s clothing.In addition, there was excess heat generated by the device which burnt the child¿s neck.Although the burns were minor and attributed more to stinging, they are important to report.The burns have caused small blisters on the child¿s neck and currently she is undergoing treatment for burns.
