Caregiver Siderail Controls
16 Hillrom Progressa ICU Hospital Bed Instructions for Use (171528 REV 15)
HEAD UP/DOWN
StayInPlace Feature
The optional StayInPlace advanced articulation technology mimics the natural movement of the patient
that occurs while transitioning between the supine and upright positions. The StayInPlace Feature helps
keep patients optimally positioned to minimize migration toward the foot end of the bed as the head of
bed is raised.
KNEE UP/DOWN
The caregiver can raise or lower the knee section by using the Knee Up/Down controls. To lock out a
control, refer to “Lockout Controls” on page 14.
The Auto Contour feature does not change the head angle when only using the Knee Up/Down
controls.
The caregiver can raise or lower the head section by using the Head Up/Down controls. Use the
Line-of-Site Angle Indicators on the siderails or the GCI screen to see the specific angle. To lock out a
control, refer to “Lockout Controls” on page 14.
To Activate
• Head Up—Press and hold the Head Up control to raise the head section. Release the
control at the applicable position.
• Head Down—Press and hold the Head Down control to lower the head section.

The bed is equipped with an Auto Contour mode. When
the Head Up control is pressed, the Auto Contour mode
raises the knee section to a maximum of 20°. When the
head section is lowered, the knee section will go to the
flat position.
• Auto Contour Feature - Press and hold the Head Up
control. The head and knee sections raise together to
reduce patient migration toward the foot end of the

to prevent the knee from moving.
