Overview

The "System 2000 Rhapsody, Primo, Harmonie" is a bathing system designed for patient care, offering features for safe and comfortable bathing, including options for hydromassage and hydrosound therapy. The system is designed to be operated by a caregiver and can be used with a lift hygiene chair or a lift bath trolley.

Function Description:

The primary function of the System 2000 is to facilitate patient bathing. It allows caregivers to safely transfer patients into and out of the bathtub and provides features to enhance the bathing experience. The system is designed to minimize physical strain on caregivers and ensure patient comfort and safety throughout the process.

Preparations for Use:

Before bathing, the bathtub should be lowered to its lowest height. If using a hygiene chair, a head pillow should be attached. If using a bath trolley, neither the head pillow nor foot support should be attached. The drain should be closed, and the Autofill button pressed to fill the tub. Caregivers must check the water temperature with a bare hand and adjust it if necessary to prevent scalding.

Usage with Lift Hygiene Chair:

  1. Positioning: The lift hygiene chair is positioned diagonally to the side of the bath.
  2. Initial Lift: The chair is raised sufficiently to create space between the patient's genitals and the bathtub rim, preventing pinching.
  3. Transfer: The lift hygiene chair is moved towards the bath. The patient's legs are lifted over the bathtub rim, and the lift is rotated into place.
  4. Water Immersion: The patient's foot is used to gauge the water temperature, and adjustments are made as needed.
  5. Centering: The chair is centered over the bathtub until it stops against the bathtub legs and rim.
  6. Ergonomics and Final Positioning: The lift hygiene chair is adjusted to an ergonomic height for the caregiver. The bathtub is raised to ensure adequate space between the patient's genitals and the bottom of the bathtub. A foot support can be attached if needed, and the patient is then bathed.

Usage with Lift Bath Trolley:

  1. Positioning: The lift bath trolley is positioned behind and to the side of the bath.
  2. Initial Lift: The lift bath trolley stretcher is raised enough to clear the edge of the bathtub.
  3. Transfer: The lift bath trolley with the patient is moved diagonally in over the bathtub rim.
  4. Centering: The trolley is centered until it stops against the bathtub legs and rim.
  5. Ergonomics and Final Positioning: The lift bath trolley is adjusted to an ergonomic height for the caregiver. The bathtub is raised until the stretcher touches the bottom of the bathtub. A foot support can be attached if needed, and the patient is then bathed.
