Introduction

At Hill-Rom, we understand that life-altering moments happen on a hospital bed. It’s where life begins. Where care is delivered. Where healing happens.

All too often, costly complications can happen when life-altering health events occur. The Centrella™ Smart+ bed is purposefully designed to best address your primary concerns and meet the changing needs of healthcare facilities.

The Centrella™ Smart+ Bed : Because life-altering moments deserve elevated care.

Delivering elevated care through:

• Optimized patient safety

• Enhanced patient satisfaction

• Advanced caregiver-focused technology

• Eﬀective cost management

GENERAL BED OVERVIEW

Audible and Visual Alerts

The Centrella™ bed provides caregivers with audible and visual indicators.

• Single beep: Activity was performed successfully (i.e. when the bed

reaches the lowest position).

• Triple beep: Attention is needed; look at the message on the GCI®

Touchscreen for more information (i.e. when you attempt to use a control that is locked-out).

Unable to Operate

Function locked out.

Remove lockout

to operate.

For a critical fault, a triple beep will sound every 10-seconds until the caregiver acknowledges the error on the touchscreen and follows the instructions.

A continuous tone will sound to indicate a serious bed malfunction and immediate attention is needed.

Verbal Safety Prompts (Optional Feature)

Verbal safety prompts provide information to the patient and caregiver.

• “Please don’t get up”

• “The care team has been called“

• “Function not available“

• “The call light not connected”

• “Brake not set”

Verbal safety prompts (except for “Brake not set”) can be disabled through the touchscreen (see “Verbal Safety Prompts On/Off” on page 30).

Power Cords & Cord Holders

The number of power cords varies depending on you bed model.

• Grey power cord: Included with all beds, this cord supplies power to the

bed and charges the frame’s battery backup. When plugged into power, the battery icon on the head rail will be solid green. Keep the battery charged and plug into power when possible.

• White power cord: This cord powers the optional auxiliary accessory outlet

located on the left side of the base frame, below the intermediate siderail.

GENERAL BED OVERVIEW

Battery Backup

When you unplug the grey power cord, a triple beep indicates the bed has lost power and the battery indicator blinks green indicating the bed is operating on battery. The battery backup operates most bed frame articulations on the caregiver control panel of the head rail.

Battery backup operates:

• All bed frame articulations except Boost® feature

• On GCI Touchscreen: FlexAfoot™ powered bed length adjustment and <30° HOB Limit

Battery backup does not operate:

• Patient pendant

• On GCI Touchscreen: Stand Assist, Chair, Bed Flat

To activate, press and hold any frame articulation control until the articulation starts. There will be a 1-2 second delay before the control activates.

SideCom® Communication System (Optional Feature)

The SideCom® Communication System provides a control for Nurse Call and entertainment features.

The connector is located at the head-end of the bed below the headboard. If the SideCom® communication cable is not connected within 45-seconds of the bed being plugged into power, a triple beep will sound and a message will appear on the GCI Touchscreen.

On Battery Backup.

Plug bed in for Bed Exit.

If equipped, a verbal safety prompt, “Call light not connected“ will sound. The triple beep and alert message will continue until the communication cable is connected, or if you turn off the reminder by pressing “Close” on the touchscreen.

The Nurse Call controls are only visible and active when the bed is connected to a compatible nurse call system. If the Nurse Call control is not visible, but the bed communication cable is connected, contact your authorized maintenance personnel.

GENERAL BED OVERVIEW

Line Managers

Each head siderail has an integrated Line Manager on top of the siderail that helps keep lines such as IV lines and suction lines together and away from the articulating frame.

CPR Release Handle

The CPR release handles are located on both sides of the upper frame, between the head and intermediate siderails. The CPR control quickly and safely lowers the head-of-bed to a flat position, even when unplugged.

To activate, pull and hold until the head section is lowered to a flat position. If the legs are elevated, continue to hold until you hear a single beep confirming the bed is flat.

NOTE: If equipped with a Centrella™ MAX powered air surface:

• It will go into Max Inﬂate for 60-minutes.

• An alert will sound before 60-minutes has elapsed alerting the caregiver to reset the timer or the surface will return to Normal mode.

• A countdown timer will show on touchscreen.

Patient Restraint Holders

There are four restraint holders on each side of the bed to secure a variety of restraints such as a vest, lap belt, wrist or ankle restraints. We do not recommend using these holders for Foley or other drainage bags due to the bed’s low height, which allows for potential risk of bags touching the floor.

WARNING: Restraints must be attached to the articulating section of the bed at the correct attachment points.

GENERAL BED OVERVIEW

Foley/Drainage Bag Holders & Foley Position Limit

There are two drainage bag holders at the foot-end of each side of the bed. It includes different height and length options for attachment to accommodate various drainage devices and help prevent them from touching the floor or being pulled.

NOTES:

• The bed length can be adjusted to accommodate drainage bags.

• Follow your facility protocol for placement of drainage bags. Make sure drainage bags are placed so they will not touch the ﬂoor.

The Foley Position Limit restricts the amount of foot-down motion during reverse Trendelenburg and chair positioning to reduce the risk of drainage bags touching the floor.

To turn the Foley Position Limit on and off, press the Settings Menu control in the Navigation Menu of the home screen, then select Foley Limit. Press Off or On, and Accept to lock in the new setting. A confirmation screen will show that the Foley Position Limit is set and an indicator will show on the Home screen.

GENERAL BED OVERVIEW

SafeView®+ System (Optional Feature)

Beds equipped with SafeView®+ System display bed safety status icons on the foot-end of the bed and projections on the floor. It notifies you when:

• Siderails are not set to facility protocol,

• Bed exit is On or Oﬀ, and

• Bed is not in the lowest position.

As you conduct patient rounds or as you leave a patient’s room, you can quickly identify that the bed is in the safest position by glancing at the projections on the floor. This is especially helpful at night, and when privacy curtains are used. Responding to flashing, amber lights can be incorporated in your facility’s “No Pass Zone” for all hospital staff to ensure patient safety.

To turn floor projections on or off: select the Settings Menu control in the Navigation Menu of the home screen. Press Bed Features, then press SafeView. Select On or Off and confirm by pressing Accept.

Siderail Lights

SafeView®+ System: Siderail Protocol Status (Optional Feature)

The SafeView®+ System siderail icon notifies you when the siderails are set in or out of facility protocol.

• Green: the minimum or greater number of siderails are up as set in the siderail protocol.

• Flashing amber: fewer siderails are raised than the set protocol.

To adjust the siderail protocol for an individual patient, select the Settings Menu control. Press Bed Features then press Rail Protocol. Select the patient siderail protocol. Press Accept.

NOTES:

• The siderail protocol is set based on your facility’s policy.

• When the bed is Zeroed for a New Patient, the siderail protocol will reset back to your facility’s default settings.

• Some rail combination settings may be unsafe for some patients. Follow your facility’s protocol.
