X-Ray Sleeve
The X-ray sleeve is available on powered air
mattresses. It is located under the patient’s chest
area. To use the sleeve, do as follows:
1. Make sure the head of the bed is between
45° and 60°. The position may be adjusted
for patient comfort.
2. Put the mattress in the Max-Inflate mode.
3. Pull the sheet away from the edge of the
mattress.
4. Lift the flap over the zipper.
5. Unzip the sleeve.
6. Make sure the x-ray cassette is in a pillow
case or similar covering.
7. Insert the x-ray cassette.
8. Remove the x-ray cassette when finished.
9. Close and zip the sleeve.
NOTE:
The cassette should insert easily. If it does not, take action to further offload patient weight.
This may generally be accomplished by raising the head of bed angle further, requesting the
patient to lean forward, or obtaining the assistance of a second person, as appropriate for the
clinical situation.
Equipment Sockets
Equipment sockets are provided at each
corner of the deck for equipment such as IV
poles and infusion support.
CAUTION:
The equipment sockets are not to be
used for overhead fracture frame
equipment.
CAUTION:
Before moving the bed into any of the chair positions, remove all equipment from the sockets at
the foot end of the articulating deck.
CAUTION:
While articulating into a Trendelenburg position, make sure there is adequate headwall clearance.
