Figure 1: Prioma Bed
All power operated functions are operated by push button controls. Each function has
separate up and down push buttons with the exception of electronic CPR and
Trendelenburg functions with are a single touch control.
Depending on the bed model, the patient can control the bed via a hand-held handset or
by integrated controls on the inside face of the head end split side rails. The patient’s
controls adjust backrest angle, leg elevation and bed height.
The care giver can control the bed via a nurse handset or integrated controls on the
outside face of the head end split sides. The nurse’s (outer) controls adjust backrest angle,
height, calf angle, auto contour (seated position), Trendelenburg & reverse Trendelenburg,
CPR position and includes a lockout function, hence operation by the patient is at the
discretion of the carer.
The bed is also available with attendant control panel (ACP or ACOM) incorporating
functions lockout.
The electrical actuators consist of a screw and nut assembly driven by a 24V d.c. motor
and gearbox. Power for the actuators is derived from an switch mode a.c. power supplied
control box located below the seat section of the bed mattress platform. The control box
also houses the control electronics with the battery backup pack adjacent to it.
When the thigh section is raised, the knee-break angle between the calf and thigh sections
can be changed manually. The default position is Fowler (calf section angled down) but
this can be changed to vascular (calf section horizontal) by lifting the calf section.
