Transferring of patient from one patient support platform to another
WARNING
• Do not use the support surface as a transfer device to avoid the risk of patient injury.
• Do not stick needles into a support surface through the support surface cover. Holes may allow body fluids to enter
the inside (inner core) of the support surface and could cause cross-contamination, product damage, or product
malfunction.
• Do not exceed the safe working load of the InTouch bed frame when supporting both the patient and the support
surface. Excess weight could cause unpredictable safety and performance of this product.
To transfer the patient from one patient support surface to another:
Prerequisite: Follow hospital protocols required to transfer a patient from one surface to another.
1. Position one patient support platform alongside the other patient support platform while minimizing the gap between
the two platforms.
2. Set the brakes to on for both patient support platforms.
3. Activate maximum inflation of the support surface until the inflation level is reached. See the InTouch Starting and
Stopping Max Inflate section of the manual for use instructions.
4. Adjust the patient support platform heights so that they are level with one another.
5. Transfer the patient following all applicable safety rules and institution protocols for patient and operator safety.
6. Turn off Max Inflate.
