Bed Frame Features
Progressa+ Bed Instructions for Use (216321 REV 2) 81
The holders accommodate any combination of the following drainage devices:
• Fecal incontinence bag
• 250-2000 ml Foley collection bag
• Chest drainage devices on the tan siderail holders or on the foot-end holders not in the lowest bed
height.
When the bed is docked, follow facility protocol for placement of the chest drainage devices.
The primary drainage bag holders are located on the weigh frame. The green hook under the foot
section is not on the weigh frame and should be used to keep drainage bags off the floor when you
weigh a patient.
RESTRAINTS
Warning—To help prevent injury and/or equipment damage, obey these warnings:
• Warning—Patient restraints are not intended as substitutes for good nursing practices.
Physical restraints, even properly installed, can cause entanglement, physical injury, and death,
particularly with agitated and disoriented patients. Monitor patients when using physical
restraints in accordance with legal requirements and facility protocol.
• Warning—Restraints must be attached to proper attachment points, not the siderails.
• Warning—Follow the restraint manufacturer's instructions.
• Warning—For restraining devices, consult the restraint manufacturer’s instructions for use to
verify the correct application of each restraining device.
• Warning—Never use ankle restraints in a chair position or when the foot section is retracted.
Do not use the foot up/ down or foot extend/retract controls as these will change the
FlexAfoot Feature length.
When appropriate, determine the proper methods necessary to help keep patients from pulling out
lines or harming themselves or others while in bed.
Caution—When you use the foot section articulations (up/down, retract/extend) or Trendelenburg or
Reverse Trendelenburg controls, make sure the drainage bags do not touch the floor.
The bed is equipped with six drainage bag holders
on each side of the bed.
Holders on the weigh frame include three (3)
holders on each side of the foot section and two
(2) hangers on each intermediate siderail.
There is one (1) green hanger on each side of the
bed that is not on the weigh frame. Only the green
drainage holders near the foot section will not be
part of patient weighing.
