Device Information
Description of the SW Evolution™
The SW Evolution™ is an electric bed. Its purpose is to assist the care provider by reducing the
chance or fall or serious injury without the use of physical or chemical restraints. The
positioning nature of this bed also provides care providers the convenience in attending to the
patients. The frame is constructed entirely from metal and is adjustable in height from a low
position of 9” (23 cm) to a high position of 30” (76 cm). The frame is designed to support a safe
working load of up to 850 lbs. (385 kg). The bed comes standard with a headboard and
footboard, a set of 2 side rails and full functioning hand control. At the foot of the bed is a lock
out control panel for the hand control functions. Options include IV pole holder, low air loss
mattress and 2 additional side rails.
Description of the optional SW Rest Secure System™ (RSS)
The purpose of the SW Rest Secure System™ is to alert the care provider that a patient is
attempting to exit the bed or is in an immediate risk of falling in settings where continuous
surveillance of a patient is not possible. This is achieved by precisely monitoring a change in
patient position. When the patient makes an attempt to get out of bed an alarm will sound either
at the hand control or activate the nurse call signal.
The SW Rest Secure System™ also has an integrated scale that utilizes a transducer based
system to accurately record the weight of the patient while in the bed. It also has the capability
to record the weight automatically every day for 30 days at user-defined intervals.
Another feature is the protocol timer, which can be set for 1, 2 or 4 hours, to alert the care
provider that the patient needs attended to or checked on. It has the capability to alert the care
provider by an audible tone or activating the nurse call signal.
