48 Progressa® Bed Instructions for Use (171528 REV 9)
To help prevent injury and/or equipment damage, obey these warnings:
• Warning—Patient restraints are not intended as substitutes for good nursing practices.
Physical restraints, even properly installed, can cause entanglement, physical injury, and death,
particularly with agitated and disoriented patients. Monitor patients when using physical
restraints in accordance with legal requirements and facility protocol.
• Warning—Restraints must be attached to proper attachment points, not the siderails.
• Warning—Follow the restraint manufacturer's instructions.
• Warning—For restraining devices, consult the restraint manufacturer’s instructions for use to
verify the correct application of each restraining device.
• Warning—Never use ankle restraints in a chair position or when the foot section is retracted.
Do not use the foot up/ down or foot extend/ retract controls as these will change the
FlexAfoot™ Feature length.
• Warning—Never use ankle restraints in a chair position or when the foot section is retracted.
