Lower Leg Elevation (Vascular Position)
The foot and lower leg section can be raised into a vascular position by using the Foot Up control.
This position is achieved by the leg raising in combination with Trendelenburg and head section
movement.
NOTE:
Lock out head controls if you do not want the head angle to raise or Trendelenburg to operate.
To lock out a control, see “Lockout Controls” on page 17.
To Activate Lower Leg Elevation:
1. Press and hold the Foot Up control. The foot section will raise. Once the foot section is at
maximum elevation, the head of bed will raise approximately 15 degrees, then the bed will
move into Trendelenburg to raise the foot higher than the head.
2. Release the Foot Up control when the desired position is reached.
NOTE:
Another way to do this is Press Knee Up instead of Foot Up, then use Trendelenburg control.
Alternately press Head up and Trendelenburg if you wish to adjust the head of bed angle with
respect to Trendelenburg.
