Bed System Entrapment Information
Refer to Accompanying
Although essential in the practice of long-term care, bedside assists, are subject of regulatory
review and evolution in design and use.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has addressed the potential danger of entrapment
with new safety guidelines for medical beds. These guidelines recommend dimensional limits for
critical gaps and spaces between bed system components.
Entrapment zones involve the relationship of components often directly assembled by the
healthcare facility rather than the manufacturer. Therefore, compliance is the responsibility of the
facility.

through a dedicated black power cord. If the auxiliary power outlet is not powering a device, check
that the power cord is plugged into a power source and that the circuit breaker (located next to the
19
Page 26
power outlet) does not need to be replaced.
Optional Trapeze/Patient Helper Accessory
The optional trapeze/patient helper has a limited safe working load (SWL). Refer to Trapeze label
for specific SWL. The trapeze handle height can be adjusted by shortening the handle length. To
shorten the handle length, grasp the handle and position at the desired height, then adjust the strap
to the appropriate length on the patient helper bar.
The trapeze has three handle positions:
1. Centered (Figure 15): Positions the trapeze handle above the patient’s upper torso to provide
assistance during positioning.
Figure 15
2. Off set (Figure 16): Positions the trapeze handle and patient helper bar to the side of the bed for
assistance during egress.
Figure 16
3. Left and Right location: The trapeze bar can be installed on the left or right side per patient
need.
Caution: The Patient Helper Bar is only to assist with repositioning on the mattress or during
egress from the bed. It is not designed to the full weight of the patient.

Initial Inspection
It’s recommended to perform a routine inspection upon initial receipt of bed to ensure optimal bed
functionality.
Specific Check Points For Inspection
1. Actuator bolts - Check attachment points and hardware for deformity and general wear
2. Mechanism pivot points - Check for wear
3. Castors - Check stem tightness, tire, brake cam and bearing wear
4. Central lock - Check linkage for wear
5. Side Rail - Check for smoothness of operation
6. Head/Foot boards - Check for damage
7. Mattress Deck - Check pivot points for tightness and wear
8. Frame Fatigue - Check for any abnormal distortion and weld cracking
9. Bumpers - Check for ease of rotation and wear
10. Labels - Check that all cautionary labels are legible and in place
11. Handset - Check for cracks and cable damage
12. Power Cable - Check for insulation damage and condition of plug prongs
13. CPR Release - Check for cable adjustment and operation under load (approx. 40 lbs. of sand
bags)
14. Check for general overall bed frame condition and cleanliness.
Twelve (12) Month Preventative Check
In addition to initial Inspection procedures above, the following preventative maintenance
procedures should be carried out annually.
General Checks
1. Examine the bed for obvious signs of damage. All aspects of the equipment should operate as
intended. Check that all nuts, bolts and other fasteners are tight and are not missing.
2. Examine flexible cable and conduits for cuts, cracks, abrasions or other deterioration.
3. Check that the power supply plug is not damaged. If either the power cable or plug is damage
then both the cable and plug must be replaced as a complete assembly.
Central Locking System
1. Apply the brakes and push the bed forwards. If any of the four braking castors rotate the brake is
not fully effective, and should be replaced
2. Check the steer lock castor for correct operation.
Trapeze/Patient Helper
Examine the strap and handle for signs of damage.
22
Page 29
Side Rails
If movement does not occur when
1. Check for function lockout on Staff Controls.
Where side rails are fitted -check:
1. The locking pin mechanism and striker plate arrangement should be checked.
2. Inspect the side rails for general wear and tightness of fittings, including pivot joints and
mounting brackets.
3. Check for rust, structural integrity of welds and pain finish.
Storage
Store in a clean dry area.
Plug bed power cord into grounded hospital-grade electrical outlet. Backup batteries, if equipped,
maintain the longest life if kept charged and are not allowed to fully discharge. Failure to keep bed
plugged in will discharge backup batteries and shorten their life.
