Sitter Elite

Steps to Apply Over Mattress Sensor

See pages 22-24 for list of warnings.

1. Select the correct sensor for your patient:

• Disposable 30-Day Sensors. For short-term use.

• 6-Month Sensors. For long-term use.

2. Check that sensor pad, cord and plug are clean and

undamaged.

3. Choose a position for sensor pad (fig. 36):

(A) Centered at patient’s shoulder blades; or

(B) Centered under patient’s buttocks.

4. Place non-slip Posey Grip on mattress at area

chosen for sensor. Place sensor pad over Posey

Grip, across width of bed.

5. Use metal clips to secure sensor to mattress.

6. Place bottom sheet over sensor.

7. If needed, use an incontinence pad to protect sensor from urine

or other liquids. Sensor may fail if liquid enters at “neck” of

sensor pad.

8. Route the sensor cord to the alarm. Check that the sensor cord is

not stressed, is clear of moving parts of bed, and does not pose a

tripping hazard.

9. Insert RJ11 plug into jack labeled “sensor” on right side of alarm

(fig. 37). Alarm will activate. Press the HolD button. You have

30 seconds to transfer the patient to the bed before monitoring

begins (see instructions on page 15 for use of the HolD button).

10. Test sensor and alarm (see below)

11. Position patient in bed, with weight centered on sensor pad.

Testing Alarm and Sensors

ALWAYS

check sensor pads when connecting them to a Posey

alarm. You can check a pad by attaching it to the sensor cable

outlet in the alarm, activating the alarm and placing pressure on the

pad (fig. 38). When the pressure is released, the alarm should sound.

Repeat this pressure/release test in several different areas along the

entire length of the sensor to ensure entire pad functions properly

both with the bed in the flat position and the head and/or foot

articulated. If the alarm and/or sensor do not function properly,

remove the alarm and sensor from service and replace them with a properly functioning alarm

and/or sensor. Do NoT use the alarm or sensor if it does not activate each time weight is

removed from the sensor.

Storing Pad Sensors when not in use

ALWAYS

store pad sensors flat in a dry secure environment. Do NoT roll, bend or fold over

mattress pad sensors. This may cause them to malfunction. You can also store the sensors

by hanging from the hole on the side of the sensor pad. Ensure sensor cords remain bundled

together in the sensor packaging. DO NOT stretch or place pressure on the cords, as this could

cause a malfunction in the sensor pad.
