Therapy Settings Selection - Arjohuntleigh RotoProne User Manual

Therapy Settings Selection

Use the Therapy Settings Selection screen to select supine or prone settings, direction of rotation and any
acclimation options.
1. With the Home screen showing, press the Therapy Settings button. The Therapy Settings Selection
screen will appear.
2. Press Prone Direction button to select clockwise or counterclockwise rotation.
Use the Prone Direction option to choose which direction the patient surface rotates from supine
to prone. When the patient surface is ready to return to the supine position from the prone
position, it will always rotate in the opposite direction. For example, if clockwise rotation is
selected, the patient surface will rotate from supine to prone in the clockwise direction. When
directed to return back to supine from prone, the patient surface will rotate in the
counterclockwise direction, so as not to tangle endotracheal tubing or patient lines.
Always rotate the patient surface from the supine position toward the ventilator, to reduce risk of
extubation.
3. Press Acclimate button to select the Acclimation option.
NOTE: Use the Acclimation option to help the patient adjust to the target rotation angle by beginning
rotation at a lower degree angle, then increasing the degree of rotation in a series of steps until
the target rotation angle is achieved.
4. Press the Prone Settings or Supine Settings button, according to which therapy will be used. The
Prone or Supine Therapy Settings screen will appear.
