Safety Information
106 Hillrom Progressa ICU Hospital Bed Instructions for Use (171528 REV 15)
FLUIDS
WARNING:
Warning—Fluid spills onto the bed electronics can cause a hazard. If such a spill occurs, unplug the bed,
and remove it from service. Failure to do so could cause injury or equipment damage.
When fluid spills occur, outside of those seen in normal use, immediately:
• Unplug the bed from its power source.
• Remove the patient from the bed.
• Clean the fluid spill from the bed.
• Have maintenance inspect the bed completely.
Do not put the bed back into service until it is completely dry, tested, and determined to be safe to
operate.
SIDERAILS
Siderails may serve several beneficial uses including providing an edge reminder, bed exit assist, and
access to caregiver interface and patient controls. The use of siderails also may provide a sense of
security. Siderails should always be in the upright and latched position when the bed is in the chair
position. The use of siderails in the bed position should be determined according to patient need after
assessing any risk factors according to the facility protocols for safe positioning.
When raising the siderails, a click indicates that the siderails are completely raised and locked in place.
once the click is heard, gently pull on the siderail to make sure the siderail is latched in position.
WARNING:
To help prevent injury and/or equipment damage, obey these warnings:
• Warning—Stay clear of the siderail when lowering.
• Warning—Evaluate patients for entrapment risk according to facility protocol, and monitor
patients appropriately. Make sure that all siderails are fully latched when in the raised position.
Failure to do either of these could cause serious injury or death.
• Warning—When a patient’s condition (such as disorientation due to medication or clinical
condition) could lead to patient entrapment, the sleep surface should be left in the flat position
while unattended (except when required otherwise by medical staff for special or particular
circumstances).
NOTE:
Siderails are intended to be a reminder, not a patient restraining device. Baxter recommends that the
appropriate medical personnel determine appropriate siderail usage.
FOOTBOARD
WARNING:
Warning—When the footboard is removed from the bed, do not lay the footboard flat on the floor.
Store the footboard in a position or location so that it does not come in contact with biohazards. Failure
to do so could cause injury.
NOTE:
If the footboard does not have a transport shelf installed, the footboard can set upright on the floor. If a
transport shelf is installed, the footboard can be put against a wall in a position so that it will not fall.
