Pedi-Mate+ Quick start guide October 24 v.1
Securing the Pedi-Mate+
1. Place the patient on the Pedi-Mate blanket ensuring the black backrest straps are level with
the patient’s shoulders. Adjust the blanket as necessary, then tighten the black backrest
straps until the mattress is compressed.
2. Fasten each of the main frame straps
around the stretcher’s main frame.
*Note if on a Ferno Power X stretcher, use
the loop fitted at point B on the stretcher to
secure the main frame straps.
3. Tighten each main frame strap equally so
the blanket sits centrally on the stretcher
mattress.
*To loosen a main frame strap unbuckle it
then pull the tang end outward.
Securing the Patient
1. Place the crotch strap between the patient’s legs and lay it on the abdomen.
2. Wrap the black chest strap of the grey and black strap floating system around the patient’s
chest and fasten. Tighten to secure but ensure normal breathing can occur.
3. Place each of the patient’s arms through the shoulder straps then lock the buckle half into the
central buckle of the crotch strap.
Finally, thread the left shoulder strap through the chest
clip and slide up to rest on the black chest strap.
