If the side rails are not secured in the proper place, entrapment to the patient may occur.
Bed rail entrapment is a serious health risk that can result in serious injury or even death.
Sizewise recommends the care provider be mindful of the FDA guidelines relevant to bed
rail entrapment, as serious injury can result. These guidelines can be found on the FDA
website. It is the care provider’s ultimate decision whether or not to use bed rails with
the patient.
Electric shock may occur when plugging the SW Rest Secure System™ into the wall

power source until AC power is restored. When the Low Battery Warning screen is
shown, the unit should be plugged into AC immediately.
