OPERATION
Position the patient in a lying position on the mattress.
Reset the pressure dial according to the patients weight. Ensure when the patient
alters from a lying position to a sitting position, the comfort setting is altered correctly.
If a patient is being moved to a sitting position, the comfort control dial should be
increased to provide more support for the patient. For example; if the patient is 50kg
and is in the sitting position the comfort dial will need to be increased to the 60kg
setting.
The static mode is only to be used for patient care. Switch off after use.
