Alarm Pause Control
WARNING:
Excessive mattress pressure changes or air system failures could impact the
pressure-relieving ability of the TotalCare® Bariatric Bed surface or Treatment surface. The
Alarm Pause feature is not a substitute for good caregiving practice and the patient should
be constantly monitored and, if necessary, removed from the bed.
CAUTION
:
Hospital service persons should be contacted immediately to assess and, if necessary,
correct a failure mode.
In the event of Max-inflate or Turn Assist timing out, excessive air loss, pressure changes, or air system failure, the
surface or initiates a continuous audible alarm. If the Head of Bed alarm is active, the alarm will sound when the head
of the bed goes below 30° or 45°.
To Silence an Alarm:
1. Press Alarm Off on the GCI message,
or
on the siderail, press the Alarm Pause control.
NOTE:
The Service Required indicator located on the caregiver control panel illuminates to provide the caregiver with both a
visual and audible indication of a potentially hazardous condition. Once activated, the Alarm Pause Control will silence
the service required alarm for 8 hours. Continuous patient assessment and protocol is necessary to determine if the
patient should be removed from the bed. The Service Required Indicator remains illuminated until the failure has been
corrected. The audible alarm reactivates after eight hours until the failure has been corrected.
Pressure Redistribution Surface with Low Air Loss Therapy
(Model 1840A)
WARNING:
Relative Contraindication
—Unstabilized spinal cord injuries. Under normal circumstances,
correct alignment on an air bladder system is easy to maintain. However, user error (such as
the activation of Turn Assist, Rotation, Opti-Rest, or Percussion/Vibration functions, when
available) or equipment malfunction (such as cushion deflation) could put correct alignment
at risk. The choice of a therapeutic support for such conditions as an unstabilized spinal cord
injury is based upon the medical judgment of professionals. Each case should be evaluated
individually.
The pressure redistribution surface offers Therapy-on-Demand® System Modules, CLRT, Percussion and Vibration,
and low air loss (LAL) therapies through the use of a “pulmonary-ready” surface, LAL topper, and modules that enable
caregivers to easily initiate therapies as desired. LAL therapy is active at all times.
The recommended therapeutic weight range for pressure relief and turning capabilities is 200 to 500 lb (91 to 227 kg).
The pressure redistribution surface uses input from the bed scale system to adjust the cushion pressures based on the
patient’s weight.
Manual input of patient weight is not possible through the pulmonary therapy screens.
