Positioning Siderails; Headboard And Footboard Operation - Stryker GoBed II MedSurg Bed FL28C Guide D'utilisation

POSITIONING SIDERAILS

The bed siderails are designed to allow their lowering using only one hand . They have one locked position: in the upper
position . They can be tucked away against the mattress support when not in use .
WARNING
• To help reduce the number and severity of a potential fall when the patient is unattended, keep the siderails in the
fully raised position and the sleep surface horizontal in its lowest position, unless its medical condition dictates
otherwise . When raising the siderails, be sure that you hear the "click" that signals the locked condition . Pull firmly
on the siderail to ensure it is locked into position .
• Siderails, with or without their padded covers, are not intended to serve as restraint devices to keep patient from
exiting the bed . Siderails are designed to keep a patient from inadvertently rolling off the bed . It is the responsibility
of the attending medical personnel to determine the degree of restraint necessary to ensure a patient will remain
safely in bed . Failure to use the siderails properly could result in serious patient injury .
To lower the head siderail, lift the yellow
lever (A) using one hand and rotate the
siderail downward toward the head end
of the bed until it is completely lowered .
Stow the siderail by pushing it against
the mattress support .
To lower the foot siderail, the same
procedure is required as for the head
end siderail; however, the siderail rotates
toward the foot end of the bed .
To raise a head siderail, rotate it upward toward the head end of the bed until it locks in the upright position; you will
then hear the "click" that indicates the locked condition .
