spring, and is secured in place with a safety strap. The Assista-Rail is 

height adjustable to accommodate the thickness of the mattress. The 

maximum user weight for this product is 300lbs / 136kgs. Product is not

WARNING - PATIENT ENTRAPMENT (see additional guidelines)

The potential risk of entrapment (limb, neck, head, torso) between the bed 

rail and adjacent item (i.e. mattress, headboard, sidetables, etc.) can be 

reduced or avoided by the following strategies:

1. Situate the bed rail at a distance that is considerably smaller or larger 

than that which could result in entrapment.

2. Consider situations that could change with time or usage such as 

mattress compression, patient movement, bed position changes due to 

electrically powered beds, etc.

3. Realize that this product is not intended as a physical constraint or 

barrier to exiting the bed.
