Citadel Bed Frame System
VariZone Patient Movement / Exit Detection
The patient movement detection function should be checked
periodically for correct operation and before each new patient
uses the bed.
Mattresses that are not approved by ArjoHuntleigh should be
validated by the user to make sure correct operation with the
VariZone system.
The patient movement detection system can be set to alarm when undesired
movement of the patient occurs. The sensitivity of the patient movement
detection, relative to the center of the deck, can be varied incrementally.
The controls for the patient movement detection system are located on the foot
end split side rails.
