The CPSC and BeyondMedShop now recall Vaunn Medical Bed Assist Rail adult bed rails. As is always the case with poorly designed bedrails, the user may become entrapped within the the bedrail structure proper or between the bedrail and the mattress with a risk of neck entrapment and asphyxiation. About 102,000 of these bedrails were sold online at BeyondMedShop.com, Amazon,com, Walmart.com and on eBay. If you have one of these bedrails, contact BeyondMedShop toll-free at 1-877-836-8838 to arrange a free repair. The company notes that a remedy for the problem won’t be available until this coming May, 2023.
