11.4 Covering the birthing bed for use
WARNING!
The delivery bed must be protected against excessive dirt by a fabric covering!
11.4.1 How to properly coat bed with hospital bedding
One of the options is using a covering from the operating room, the size of which corresponds to
that of the relevant delivery bed section, or with a fabric coating used for standard beds. First of all,
the lying section, back section or seat section will be covered, then the entire foot section and foot
rests. We recommend covering exposed surfaces (seat section, foot rest) additionally with absorp-
tion gauze.
Other examples of correct coating of the bed using hospital coatings before labour are shown below.
