Patient Restraint Interface
The TotalCare® Bariatric Bed facilitates the use of vest, wrist,
waist, and ankle restraints. Hill-Rom makes no
recommendation regarding the use of physical restraints.
Users should refer to legal restrictions and appropriate facility
protocols before physical restraints are used.
WARNING:
Patient restraints are not intended as substitutes for
good nursing practices. Physical restraints, even
properly installed, can result in entanglement,
physical injury, and death, particularly with agitated and disoriented patients. Monitor patients when using
physical restraints in accordance with legal requirements and facility protocol.
WARNING:
Restraints must be attached to the articulating sections of the system at the proper attachment points to
prevent injury to the patient.
WARNING:
Never use ankle restraints in a chair position or when the foot section is retracted. Patient injury can occur.
TotalCare® Bariatric Bed Surface
The TotalCare® Bariatric Bed surface is an all-foam, modular,
three-layered foam system with a viscoelastic core. The
TotalCare® Bariatric Bed surface reduces patient pressure.
The TotalCare® Bariatric Bed surface is for use with patients
weighing between 250 and 460 lbs. (113 and 209 kg) who need
a pressure reducing foam surface.
The TotalCare® Bariatric Bed surface is designed to work with
the following system features:
• Step deck
• Shearless Pivot® Patient Position Mechanism
• FlexAfoot™ Retractable Foot Mechanism
• FullChair® Patient Position Mechanism
• FullChair® Patient Egress Position Mechanism
Loose fitting sheets (preferably knitted) must be used for correct operation of the sleep surface.
WARNING:
Use extreme care when transferring a patient from one surface to another. Use facility protocol for patient
transfer. Failure to do so can result in personal injury.
