IVC™ Bariatric Bed
DANGER!
Risk Of Injury Or Adverse Health Consequences
Fall hazard exists due to use of NON-Invacare
mattresses. Non-Invacare mattresses are potentially
incompatible with Invacare beds.
–
To avoid injury, ensure that only Invacare mattresses
are used with Invacare beds at all times.
DANGER!
Risk Of Death or Injury
An increased risk of patient entrapment may occur over
time due to mattress compression.
–
Periodically monitor gaps between the bed, mattress,
and/or bed rail. Where gaps occur, patient entrapment
is possible and the mattress should be replaced.
DANGER!
Risk Of Death, Injury, Or Damage
To avoid entrapment, product damage, and/or personal
injury:
–
When used with a manual/electric bed, the bed rails
DO NOT fall under any weight limitations. Bed rails
can be deformed or broken if excessive side pressure
is exerted on the bed rails. These bed rails are used
for the purpose of preventing an individual from
inadvertently rolling out of bed. The bed rails are
not intended nor may be used for restraint purposes.
If an individual is capable of injuring himself/herself,
a physician or a healthcare professional should be
consulted for alternative means of safe restraint.
–
After raising/lowering the head/foot end of the electric
bed, check the distance between the bottom of the
bed rail and the mattress. If there is excessive distance
between the bottom of the bed rail and the mattress
in which individuals may become entangled, adjust
the height of the bed rail (if applicable), or provide
alternative means of patient protection.
–
DO NOT use the side rails as push handles for moving
the electric bed.
–
Replacement mattresses and bed side rails with
dimensions different from the original equipment
supplied or specified by the bed frame manufacturer
are not interchangeable. Variations in bed side rail
design, width and thickness or firmness of the mattress
could cause/contribute to entrapment.
