Warnings
and
Cautions
WARNING
•
Hospital staff should ensure a safe environment to the patient by verifying that the stretcher components (rails, access doors, accessories,
etc.) are in good condition and properly secured before placing a patient on the stretcher.
•
Always apply the brakes when a patient is removed from or placed on the stretcher. Always engage the brakes unless the stretcher is
being moved. Push on the stretcher to ensure the brakes are securely locked. Injury could result if a stretcher moves while a patient is
placed or removed from the stretcher.
•
When brakes are applied on a fixed height stretcher, be sure all four casters are locked to ensure a complete immobilization of the
stretcher.
•
To reduce risk of injury, ensure the litter is horizontal and in the lowest position with the rails fully raised when moving the pediatric
stretcher with a patient on it.
•
The rails must always remain in the highest position and the litter in the lowest position unless the patient is being tended. Never leave a
patient unattended when the rails are lowered.
•
Make sure that proper policies are applied to ensure the patient’s safety when an IV pole and/or an oxygen bottle is used. The patient
should not be able to reach nor manipulate them.
•
To prevent possible fire hazard when using an oxygen tent on a stretcher equipped with the scale system (optional), do not activate the
scale. Also ensure that the rails are outside the tent.
•
To avoid injury to the patient and/or the user, ensure the rails are in their highest position before lowering the litter or placing it in one of
the Trendelenburg positions, and that all equipment and people are removed from the area below and around the litter.
•
To avoid falls and injury, verify the rails and access doors are properly locked into position before leaving a patient unattended or after
having moved a rail or an access door.
•
To avoid injury to the patient, ensure the patient’s extremities are clear of all moving parts before operating a rail. Always ensure the rail
is securely locked after moving it.
•
To avoid falls and injury, ensure that both access door open/close indicators (located on both lock release knobs) show green when the
door is closed and locked into position.
•
Avoid using an access door or a rail handle as push/pull devices or damage to the unit or injury to the patient and/or user may occur.
•
To avoid injury to the patient and/or user, do not attempt to move the stretcher directly sideways with the steer mode engaged. The fifth
steer wheel cannot pivot.
•
To avoid injury to the patient, verify the patient is safely positioned on the litter before lowering the siderail or operating the Fowler or
foot section.
•
To avoid injury to the patient when raising or lowering the manual Fowler or the foot section, verify the support arm is securely engaged
in the arm stoppers before releasing the Fowler or foot section.
•
When patient is able to climb out the stretcher or reaches the height of 35 in. (90 cm), the stretcher shall no longer be used.
•
Do not place cords, straps or similar items that could become wound around the patient’s neck in or near the stretcher.
•
Do not leave objects or toys in the stretcher.
•
Do not use a water mattress with this stretcher.
•
To avoid injury to the patient, any mattress used on this stretcher must be at least 57 1/2 in. (146.05 cm) long by 29 3/8 in. (74.6 cm) wide
and not less than 3 in. (7.6 cm) or more than 6 in. (15.3 cm) thick.
•
Failure to properly clean the mattress, or dispose of it if defective, may increase the risk of exposure to pathogenic substances and may
bring about diseases to the patient and/or the user.
•
Do not use the stretcher if any components are missing or broken. Contact your dealer or Stryker for replacement parts. Use only
replacement parts provided by Stryker.
•
Maximum static weight capacity = 400 lb (181.4 kg).
CAUTION
•
To avoid damage to the scale electronic components, do not lean on the accessory bracket housing the scale module.
•
Do not use a two or three stage fixed IV pole at the foot end of a stretcher equipped with the scale.
•
The scale weighing zone is made up of all the upper part of the stretcher, including the safety end/siderails, the accessory brackets, the
drainage bag hooks, the chart and monitor holders (optional) located under the mattress support. Ensure no external object is in contact
with the stretcher during a weighing or when zeroing the scale.
•
To maintain the scale accuracy, it is recommended to zero the scale at least once a week. Note that the patient must be removed from
the stretcher before zeroing the scale.
•
Use only 1.5 VDC alkaline batteries. The use of batteries other than the one recommended may damage the scale electronic components.
•
Remove the batteries if the scale module or the stretcher is not used for long periods.
•
Always store the IV Caddy when not in use to avoid damaging it when the stretcher is moved.
•
The weight of the IV bags should not exceed 40 lb (18 kg).
•
Do not install a two or three-stage fixed IV pole at the foot end of a stretcher equipped with the scale.
•
Do not use the protective top as a push/pull device.
