Important Precautions

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. This product is intended for use as an adjustable mattress platform that contours for resident/patient comfort with adjustable height for resident/patient and caregiver convenience. Use of this product in a manner for which it was not designed could result in unproven or unsafe conguration, potentially resulting in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury. Before adjusting bed, ensure that area under and near bed perimeter is free of people and obstructions. Failure to do so could result in injury.

Warning: Possible Injury. Keep bed in lowest position except when providing care (bathing, clothing changes, etc.). Bed should be at lowest convenient height for entry or exit. Failure to do so could result in injury.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Floor locks increase bed stability and resident/patient safety. Floor and caster swivel locks must be locked prior to any resident/patient transfer or resident/patient use of the bed. Failure to do so could result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Residents/ patients may become entangled in pendant cord. Patients with reduced mental acuity should not be allowed access to pendant. Unsupervised use of pendant could result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Bed safe working load is 1050 pounds. This is total weight counting resident/patient, mattress, bedding and any other equipment or persons likely to be on bed. Do not exceed 1050-pound safe working load. Exceeding the safe working load could result in property damage, injury or death.

Warning: Possible Fire Hazard. Use nasal mask or ½ bed tent oxygen administering equipment. Oxygen tent should not extend below Mattress Support Platform. Pendant should not be placed in an oxygen-enriched environment such as an oxygen tent. Use of electrical circuits in an oxygenenriched environment could result in a re hazard.

Warning: Possible Shock Hazard. Injury may result from improper routing of the power cord. Always follow the proper factory-installed routing conguration. Failure to do so could result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Use a mattress that is properly sized to t Mattress Support Platform, which will remain centered on Mattress Support Platform relative to State and Federal guidelines. Length and width should match Mattress Support Platform. Use of an improperly tted mattress could result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. If a resident/ patient’s mental or physical condition could lead to resident/patient entrapment, the Mattress Support Platform should be left in the at position when unattended. Failure to do so could result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury or Death. An optimal bed system assessment should be conducted on each resident by a qualied clinician or medical provider to ensure maximum safety of the resident. The assessment should be conducted within the context of, and in compliance with, the state and federal guidelines related to the use of restraints and bed system entrapment guidance, including the Clinical Guidance for the Assessment and Implementation of Side Rails published by the Hospital Bed Safety Workgroup of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Further information can be obtained at the following web address: http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/beds/.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Use a properly sized mattress in order to minimize the gap between the side of mattress and Side Rails/Assist Devices. This gap must be small enough to prevent resident/ patient from getting his/her head or neck caught in this location. Make sure that raising or lowering bed, or contouring the Mattress Support Platform, does not create any hazardous gaps. Excessive gaps may result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Do not use any Side Rails/Assist Devices until you verify they are locked in place. Failure to lock assist devices may result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Shock Hazard. Unplug power cord from wall outlet before performing any maintenance, cleaning, or service to the bed. Failure to do so could result in injury or death. Note: In case of unexpected movement,disconnect battery and unplug bed from any outlet.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. Do not use any replacement parts not manufactured, marketed, or provided by Joerns Healthcare on any Joerns bed. Use of unapproved replacement parts may result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Injury Or Death. If using accessories not manufactured, marketed, or provided by Joerns Healthcare for Joerns® beds, consult with the manufacturer for compatibility and limitations prior to use. Failure to do so may result in injury or death.

Warning: Possible Shock Hazard. Bed power cord has hospital-grade, 3-pronged grounded plug. Grounding reliability can only be achieved when equipment is connected to an equivalent receptacle marked “hospital-grade”. If external grounding conductor is in doubt, operate bed from backup battery. Failure to do so could result in injury.

Warning: Possible Equipment Damage Or Injury To Staff Members. Service and repair must only be

performed by qualied, authorized Joerns Healthcare Technical Support personnel.

Warning: Explosion Hazard. Do not use in the presence of ammable anesthetics, gas or vapors. Failure to heed this warning could result in equipment damage, injury or death.

Caution: Stay clear of underneath the bed when adjusting or moving the bed.

Caution: Mattress Support Platform is not grounded, nor does it have a potential equalization connection point. To prevent injury to resident/patient connected to intravascular or intercardial medical equipment, alternate measure must be implemented to equalize the potential between Mattress Support Platform and medical equipment.

Warning: To reduce the risk of injury, ensure the Mattress Support Platform is horizontal and in the lowest position with the siderails fully raised and locked when moving the bed with a resident/patient in it. For best maneuverability, push the bed from the head end. To avoid injury to the resident/patient and/or user, do not attempt to move the bed laterally with the steer engaged. The wheel cannot swivel.

Warning: Medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in this manual.

Caution: Particular precaution must be considered during exposure to strong emission source such as High Frequency surgical equipment and similar devices. Do not route High Frequency cables on or near device. If in doubt, contact a qualied technician.

Warning: Possible Injury or Death. Make sure Mattress Support Platform is in non-extended position (narrow) and all casters are locked during resident/patient transfers.

Caution: To avoid damage to the siderail mechanisms, do not move the bed using the siderails. Use the push/pull handles integrated in the end panels to move the bed.

Caution: Before transporting bed, unplug bed from power source, wrap Power Cord around Cord storage hooks on bed frame below Head Panel and hang Pendant Cord from Foot Panel. Failure to do so could result in Power Cord, Pendant Cord, or bed damage, thereby creating a potential hazard.

Caution: Drainage bag loops are not intended for use as tie downs.

When assessing the risk for entrapment, you need to consider your bed, mattress, Head/Foot Panels, Side Rails/Assist Device and other accessories, as a system. It is also extremely important to review the resident/patient’s physical and mental condition and initiate an appropriate individual care plan to address entrapment risk. All Joerns bed systems are evaluated for compliance to the FDA/CDRH “Hospital Bed System Dimensional and Assessment Guidance to Reduce Entrapment.” For more information, call your distributor (contact information found on page 18).

Warning: The Bari10A should not be used adjacent to, or stacked with, other equipment due to the risk of electronic interference. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the bed should be observed to verify normal operation in the conguration in which it will be used.

Warning: Using non-approved cables and accessories may negatively affect the EMC performance.

Warning: Mobile RF communication equipment can affect Medical Electrical Equipment.

Bed System Entrapment Information

In April 1999, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in partnership with representatives from the hospital and post-acute bed industry, including Joerns Healthcare, national healthcare organizations, resident advocacy groups, and other federal agencies formed the Hospital Bed Safety Workgroup (HBSW). The workgroup’s goal is to improve the safety of bed frames for patients and residents in all health care settings who are most vulnerable to the risk of entrapment. The efforts of the FDA and the HBSW culminated in the FDA’s release of recommended guidelines intended to reduce the risk of entrapment, including dimensional limits for critical gaps and spaces between bed system components and clinical guidance for assessment and implementation of bed side rails in various health care settings.

Entrapment zones involve the relationship of bed components often directly assembled by the healthcare facility rather than the manufacturer. Therefore, compliance is the responsibility of the facility.

As the leading manufacturer of long-term care beds and a frontrunner in addressing this critical issue, Joerns Healthcare can offer you the expertise, assistance and products to bring your facility into compliance.

Joerns® Compliance Solutions

Matching the right bed components in order to meet regulatory guidelines can be complex.

That is why Joerns offers a wide array of compliance options. We assist customers in selecting compliant accessories recommended for their specic bed model.

Bed Movement/Transport

1. Follow these general guidelines when moving bed (specic patient’s needs may necessitate such requirements). a. Fully lower all Mattress Support

Platform sections.

b. If extended, retract Mattress Support

Platform width extensions on both sides. Note: This may require removing mattress sections.

c. If extended, retract Mattress Support

Platform Foot extension. d. Latch all Side Rails in up position. e. Required: Place an attendant at each

bed end. f. Caution: Before transporting bed, unplug

bed from power source, wrap Power Cord

around Cord storage hooks below Head

Panel, hang Pendant Cord from Foot Panel,

and route Pendant Cord inside Side Rails

(Figure 17). Failure to do so could result in

Pendant Cord, Power Cord or bed damage,

thereby creating a potential hazard. Ensure

Pendant Cable and Power Cord are off oor

and away from Casters. g. Unlock Casters. h. Deploy Steer Wheel if equipped with

optional Steer Pedal. i. Apply even push/pull force on Head

Panel and/or Foot Panel handholds

(Figure 18). When bed movement/transport

is completed:

• Always apply Caster Locks and disengage steer wheel, if applicable. Caution: It is critically important to lock all four casters individually to prevent unintended bed movement.

• Always plug bed back into power outlet so that it is continuously charging.

Caution: Steer wheel must be disengaged to obtain an accurate resident/patient weight.

Note: International standards require distance from top of mattress (un-compressed) to top of Side Rails to be a minimum of 220 mm (8.66 inches). If mattress is thicker than 6.5 inches (Example: If a professional recommends an air otation system to treat pressure ulceration), bed/mattress system would not comply with International standards. A professional can assess if clinical benets outweigh the risk of not meeting standards.

IV Sockets

The IV Sockets at the head and foot of the bed are rated for 50 lb. maximum vertical or 50 lbs-ft torque.

2. Exercise caution when cleaning LCD window.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

Integrated circuits and semiconductors on printed circuit boards may be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Be sure to use proper handling precautions at all times.

Electromagnetic Immunity

Electromagnetic Immunity is always relative and standards are based on anticipated environments of usage. If the user notes unusual device behavior, this could be an indication of electromagnetic interference. If such behavior is observed it may be associated with the nearby usage of radio or tv transmitters, cell phones, electro-surgical equipment, etc. and the user should try moving the interfering equipment further from this device.

Cleaning, Inspection and Maintenance

Warning: Disconnect Bari10A Power Cord from wall outlet before cleaning.

Warning: Do not use power wash or high pressure cleaner on any Bari10A part.

Warning: Lock all four Casters when cleaning, inspecting or performing any maintenance of the Bari10A. Lower all Mattress Support Platform sections unless necessary for service access. Lock all functions on Staff Control. Disconnect Power and Pendant Cords.

Caution: It is critically important to lock all four casters individually.

General Cleaning

1. For low level disinfecting, wipe surfaces with a properly prepared detergent/disinfectant.

2. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Use damp rag only, when cleaning around electrical connectors and components.

3. Actuator surfaces must be cleaned of dust and dirt regularly. Do not attempt to clean exposed actuator push tubes.

Storage

1. Store in a clean dry area.

2. Plug bed power cord into grounded hospitalgrade electrical outlet. Actuator Control System backup batteries maintain the longest life if kept charged and are not allowed to fully discharge.

2. To optimize bed longevity: a. Keep bed clean. b. Observe bed usage and operation and

report any discrepancies or problems to your distributor (contact information found on page 18).

c. Check for loose bolts, nuts or pins, and

report problems. After a week of use, check all bolts for any looseness, and make sure all pins are in their normal location and fastened.
