ENTRAPMENT GUIDELINES
The use of Bed Rails is dependent on the setting as well as the facilities protocols. Proactive Medical does
not make product recommendations for any given patient. Those decisions are the responsibility of the
health care facility and/or health care professional(s) familiar with each patient's unique requirements.
Proactive Medical support surfaces are made to fit standard hospital and health care facility beds. However,
variations in bed rail dimensions, overlay compression based on patient size and shape, conditions
such as dementia, seizure disorders, sleeping problems, incontinence, and restlessness could create an
entrapment risk. Proper patient assessment and monitoring, and equipment use and maintenance are
required to reduce entrapment risk.
