PATIENT PREPARATION
9.1.
Preparation for Patient Use
•
New Installation: This equipment will need to be properly cleaned before patient use as it will
inevitably come into contact with contaminants during shipping, unpacking, storage, and
installation.
•
After initial use, this equipment will need to be properly cleaned between uses
with patients as it will inevitably come into contact with contaminants during
procedures. Refer to section 13 of this manual for cleaning instructions and
approved cleaning substances.
9.2.
Patient Loading
•
Patients must be loaded from the side of table. There is a possibility of tilting,
instability and/or tipping if patient is loaded onto the pedestal end or the imaging end
of the table.
•
To reduce potential motion during patient transfers with larger patients, move the tabletop
lateral (side to side) in the direction the patient will be moving until the limit of the tabletop
travel is reached, release the Panhandle Tabletop Float Break to re-engage the break and then
transfer the patient onto the Table.
CAUTION
If the tabletop is struck hard enough, it may slide
to reduce damage to the carbon fiber top.
WARNING!
Before loading a patient onto the table, always set
the base caster pedals in BOTH the front AND the
rear to their “LOCK” positions. Failure to do so
could result in death or serious injury.
