7.4 Cushioned rail guard (101182PRO)
The nursing bed can be fitted with a cushioned side rail guard. The rail guard
can be used as a protective measure to prevent patient's leg or arm to get
squeezed and trapped between side rails. Pay attention to the warnings
considering use of the rail guard and estimate risks of using rail guard with the
patient in question. The guard is padded on the inside to prevent injury to the
patient.
1. Turn the rail guard over the side rail.
2. Secure the rail guard below the lower rail by attaching the Velcro strip to
its counterpart inside the guard.
The rail guard does not need to be removed when the rail is lowered.
Note: The rail guard 101182PRO can’t be used together with raised side rail.
Using rail guard on patients with limited moving capability (e.g.,
handicapped, or elderly patients) may cause danger of suffocation.
Estimate patients' clinical state before using the rail guard.
Rail guard blocks patients' view from bed. Some patients may consider
this situation distressing and become anxious (danger of falling, trapping
and suffocation). Estimate patients' clinical state before using the rail
guard.
Make sure that the bed adjustments function normally after the rail
guard has been attached.
