Using generators for games can create a
new twist in storm dangers
After Hurricane Ike hit Texas last September, many people fired
up gasoline-powered generators not to turn on their lights or
refrigerators but to play video games, a study in today's
Pediatrics says.
Running a generator in a garage - a common mistake after storms
- can cause a dangerous buildup of carbon monoxide, a colorless,
odorless gas that sends 50,000 Americans to the emergency room
each year.
Of the 37 people treated for carbon monoxide poisoning at one
Houston hospital in the first 36 hours after the storm, 21 were
in homes where generators were run to play video games, says
author Caroline Fife. Fifteen of these victims were children,
not including one 3-year-old who died before getting to the
hospital, Memorial Hermann Hospital-Texas Medical Center.
Nearly 2 million people lost power during the storm, and 1
million remained without power one week later, the study says.
Many patients said they were afraid to leave generators outdoors
for fear of theft, Fife says. Floodwaters also can make it hard
to place generators outside.
Fife says it was difficult to entertain children after the
hurricane, when fallen trees, live power lines and newly
homeless animals made it too dangerous for kids to play outside.
And children and adults alike have come to see video games and
cellphones as essential, says Fife, associate professor of
medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center at
Houston. Research shows that children spend 25% of their waking
hours, or 41/2 hours a day, with TV or video games.
Yet children weren't the ones who turned on the generators,
which are complicated to operate, Fife says. Parents were
operating them, in some cases to enjoy video games themselves.
Generators should never be used indoors, even in a garage,
because carbon monoxide can seep into the house, says Fuyuen
Yip, an epidemiologist with the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. They should always be used outdoors. |
