Pedi-Mate+ Quick start guide October 24 v.1
Fitting the Pedi-Mate+ to the stretcher
1. Remove the 4-point harness restraint from the stretcher (leave all other leg straps in situ).
2. Raise the back of the stretcher to an angle between 15 and 45 degrees to keep the patients
shoulders higher than the pelvis to maintain a correct centre of gravity.
3. Unroll the Pedi-Mate and position it so
that the base of the blanket is at the joint
in the stretcher.
The black backrest strap will be in the
area where the patient’s shoulders will
rest.
4. Fasten the black (buckled) backrest straps
around the back of the stretcher, leaving a little
slack for final adjustments later.
5. The grey and black floating strap should be
fastened on the side of the stretcher having been
run around the rear of the backrest as pictured.
Leave some slack for final adjustment.
