They have lulled many infants get sleep and helped parents get shut eye, too. But a new study finds those machines and cuddly toys that produce soothing sounds can have an alarming down side. They can damage an infants hearing when set too loud or placed too close to a baby. Pleasanton pediatrician says it is something hes been concerned about for years. Babies could be pretty sensitive, especially at the newborn period where they have very small structures in their ears. Researchers evaluated 14 popular machines and devices and found when set at maximum volume, from about a foot away, all exceeded 68 decibles. The doctor says it is about comparison. Some of these parents are using these devices all during the night. So, the babies are exposed to this level of sound all nigh long. A study done more than a decade ago recommended less than 50 decibles as the maximum noise limit for improving newborn sleep. Its something you can easily measure with an app. The study recommends parents place the monitors as far away from their baby as possible and keep them at a low volume. And only use them for a short period of time. And, he says, if that doesnt work, try something else. All babies arent the same. You need to try Different Things to find out what works best for the baby. The study calls on the makers of these noise devices to limit their maximum volume, including a printed warning and put a timer on the device. A trade group that represents makers of the Baby Products says it welcomes any information that advances the safety of children. Okay. So maybe you didnt get to walk the red carpet.
