Trauma Stretcher—Restraint
WARNING:
Ensure that the restraint procedures are done correctly, using the
Trauma Stretcher’s specific restraint locations. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury and equipment damage.
• Put the stretcher in the low position.
• Place the stretcher against a wall which has restraint hooks in place.
• Press the pedal to raise the stretcher until the bottom of the siderail (the
bumper) is secure against the restraint hooks.
Restraining the Patient’s Wrist
• Locate the cut-out in the foot panel on either side of the stretcher.
• Secure the wrist to the foot deck weldment.
Restraining the Patient’s Ankle
• Locate the ankle restraint label on the upper frame weldment.
• Secure the ankle to the area specified by the label.
OB/GYN Stretcher Patient Grip Handle
The patient grip handle is positioned on the siderail end tube located at the foot
end of the siderail.
WARNING:
Ensure that the patient grip handles are cleaned before each stretcher
use. Failure to do so could result in cross-contamination between
patients.
Raising the Patient Grip Handle
• Grasp the top of the siderail, and pull out from under the sleep surface.
• Pull the siderail up until it locks into position.
