弗里斯克，德克萨斯州 - 为防止医院内新生婴儿被人盗拐，弗里斯克Baylor医疗中心的官员引进了一种新的保安措施。

Hugs标签被系在婴儿脚踝处，Kisses母亲标签则戴在母亲手腕上。当两个标签靠近时，悦耳铃音会立即响起。如果错误的母子靠近时，警报音会提示出错。

婴儿脚踝处的控制器可以锁住电梯运行以防止婴儿离开病区。此外，摄像头也被装在产后区病房内。

根据(美国)国家失踪与被侵犯儿童中心报告，新生婴儿被盗拐主要发生在德克萨斯州和加里福利亚州的医院内。

FRISCO, Texas — To prevent newborns from being abducted from their hospital, officials at Baylor Medical Center Frisco have introduced a new security measure.

The Hugs and Kisses program places an ankle monitor on a newborn and a bracelet on the mother. When the two are together, a lullaby plays; however, if the wrong mother and the wrong baby are together, an alert will sound.

The ankle monitor also locks down elevators to prevent infants from leaving the floor.

Additionally, cameras have been installed in postpartum patient rooms.

According to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, newborn babies are most frequently abducted at hospitals in Texas and California.
