SURFACES
WARNING:
To help prevent injury and/or equipment damage, obey these warnings:
• Warning—Some safety features of the bed may not function or may not operate as intended
with surfaces not designed specifically for this bed. Check with the surface manufacturer to
determine those safety features of the bed that have been tested and verified to work properly
with the replacement surface.
• Warning—A sound risk assessment and protocol is necessary to determine the appropriate
surface for the patient's condition.
• Warning—Only Progressa® Prevention, Progressa® Pulmonary, and Progressa® Therapy
Surfaces with the Chair Egress feature should be used with the Chair Egress function of the bed.
• Warning—Only use Progressa® Pulmonary and Progressa® Therapy StayInPlace™ Surfaces on
beds equipped with the StayInPlace™ Feature or reduced surface performance could occur.
NOTE:
The above warning does not apply to the Progressa® Prevention Surface. The Progressa® Prevention
Surface has the StayInPlace™ feature built into the mattress. The Progressa® Prevention Surface can be
used on a Progressa® Bed with or without the StayInPlace™ feature.
NOTE:
Hill-Rom recommends the use of Hill-Rom® Surfaces that have been designed and tested specifically for
the bed. Customers electing to purchase replacement surfaces from other manufacturers should
confirm that the replacement surface, when used in conjunction with the bed, meets applicable
regulations, regulatory guidance and technical standards and does not create unacceptable risks of
injury to patients or caregivers. Specifically, Hill-Rom suggests that surfaces utilize dimensions and
construction to minimize gaps where entrapment could occur, provide for sufficient height between
the surface and the top of the siderail to prevent accidental roll-over events, provide appropriate
firmness at the edges of the surface to facilitate safe transfers into and out of the bed, and do not
interfere with the proper operation of siderails.
There are three primary surfaces: Progressa® Prevention, Progressa® Therapy, and Progressa® Pulmonary.
Refer to “Mattress Compatibility” on page 92 for a list of surfaces and bed frame function
compatibilities.
Refer to “Product Configuration Identification” on page 102 to identify the surface installed on the bed.
For an air mattress to operate correctly, there must be a minimum of 70 lb (32 kg) on the mattress.
Loose fitting sheets (preferably knitted) must be used for correct operation of the sleep surface.
The Progressa® Bed surfaces are designed especially to work with the following system features:
• StayInPlace™ Patient Positioning
• SlideGuard® Patient Position Mechanism
• FlexAfoot™ Retractable Foot Mechanism
• Chair Egress Patient Exit Position Mechanism
PROGRESSA® PREVENTION SURFACE
The Progressa® Prevention Surface is foam with non-powered air cylinders.
