Model 678 Pedi-Mate®
4.3 Positioning the Pedi-Mate®
1. Remove any restraints attached to the cot.
2. Raise the cot backrest and lock in place at an angle
between 15 and 45 degrees. This will keep the
patient’s shoulders higher than the pelvis and maintain
the proper center of gravity.
3. Unroll the Pedi-Mate
®
and spread it flat on the cot
mattress with all straps extended.
4. Center the blanket left to right on the mattress.
5. Position the blanket with the black backrest strap at
the point where you expect the patient’s shoulders to
rest (Figure 1).
4.4 securing the Pedi-Mate®
1. Place the patient on the Pedi-Mate
®
. If the black
backrest strap is not at the patient’s shoulder level,
adjust the blanket position.
2. With the blanket properly positioned, tighten the
backrest strap by pulling very firmly on the free end of
the strap until the mattress is compressed.
3. Fasten a main frame strap by threading the free
end downward between the cot main frame and the
mattress next to the head-end sidearm casting.
4. Wrap the strap up around the cot main frame and
fasten the buckle (Figure 3). Leave a little slack in the
strap for final adjustment.
5. Repeat with the other main-frame strap.
6. Tighten each main frame strap by holding onto the
buckle with one hand and pulling firmly on the free
end of the strap.
otee:
To loosen a main-frame strap, unfasten it, then grasp
the buckle tang, and pull outward. Refasten the buckle.
