Recommendations for the function lockouts
The electrical function management control prevents any unintended bed
movements that might cause injury to the patient.
It is highly recommended that functional lock out should be used whenever a
patient is undergoing examination or treatment or when the bed is being serviced
or moved. Functions should also be locked out when the patient is left unattended and
if the nursing staff believes that the patient is not capable of operating the controls
independently in safety.
It is thus the responsibility of the nursing staff to authorize the patient to use certain
b
ed functions, including the HiLow.
The Trendelenburg / Reverse Trendelenburg, Boost™*, chair* and CPR*
functions must only be accessible to caregivers.
Electrical safety
When direct intravascular or intracardiac connections are in use, the electric
potentials of all the unprotect
ed metal parts need to be equalized. The bed must be
connected to a mains electric power supply with earth protection.
In an environment where electrostatic discharges are prevalent, we recommend the
use of an antistatic caster.
The mains power supply for the bed must comply with following standards:
• NF C 15-100 and NF C 15-211 (France),
• International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 364 for other locations.
Check that the bed’s power requirements on the identification label (see “Overview”
page 14) correspond to the power supply voltage of the hospital.
The power supply should be equipped with a maximum 30 mA earth
leakage circuit breaker, in compliance with IEC 364-5-53.
All the parts of the bed within the patient's reach are applied parts, even if they
are under the bed frame.
If the integrity of the protective conductor is in doubt, the beds fitted with batteries
must be used in battery mode.
In compliance with standards relating to electromagnetic interference for medical
e
quipment, this product does not interfere with other medical devices or is not
susceptible to interference when combined with other medical devices that also comply
with the electromagnetic standards in force.
Some devices, particularly older ones that do
not comply with the electromagnetic
compatibility standards, may however undergo interference or may themselves
interfere with the working of this product.
The users of such devices are responsible f
or ensuring that any malfunctions will
not endanger the patient or any other person.
