DANGER!
Risk of Death, Injury or Damage
Patient entrapment from the use of bed side
rails may cause injury or death. To avoid patient
entrapment:
– The Invacare mattress MUST fit firmly against
the bed frame AND bed side rails to prevent
patient entrapment. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Monitor patient frequently. Read
and understand the user manual prior to using
the Invacare bed and bed rails. User manuals
are available at www.invacare.com or your
dealer.
– After any adjustments, repair or service and
before use, make sure all attaching hardware
is tightened securely.
DANGER!
Risk of Death, Injury or Damage
Conditions such as restlessness, mental
deterioration and dementia or seizure disorders
(uncontrolled body movement), sleeping
problems, and incontinence can significantly
impact a patient's risk of entrapment. Pediatric
patients or patients with small body size may also
have an increased risk of entrapment.
– Monitor patients with these conditions
frequently.
– Place the mattress deck in the flat position
when left unattended.
