HEAD AND INTERMEDIATE SIDERAILS
To help prevent serious injury and/or death, obey these warnings:
• Warning—Evaluate patients for entrapment and fall risk according to facility protocol, and
monitor patients appropriately.
• Warning—Make sure that all siderails are fully latched when in the raised position.
• Warning—Stay clear of pinch points and moving parts during siderail operation.
NOTES:
• Siderails are intended to be a reminder to the patient of the bed's edges, not a patient-
restraining device. When appropriate, Hill-Rom recommends that medical persons determine
the correct methods necessary to make sure a patient stays safely in bed.
• Siderails in the raised position are intended to make the patient aware of the proximity of the
edge of the mattress and to assist in patient entry and exit.
Caution—Before you raise or lower a siderail, make sure that the area around the siderail is free of
objects and devices. Failure to do so could cause equipment damage.
• The Line-of-Site® Trendelenburg/Reverse Trendelenburg Angle
indicators on the intermediate siderails give an estimated degree of the
bed’s angle.
