To ensure safe operation of this equipment, it is recommended that methods and procedures be established for educating and training staff on the safe operation of this stretcher.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Stryker Model 1115 Prime Series stretcher with Big Wheel® decreases start-up force by 50 percent and steering effort by 60 percent.

INTENDED USE OF PRODUCT

The Stryker Model 1115 Prime Series stretcher is a wheeled device which consists of a platform mounted on a wheeled frame that is designed to support patients in a horizontal position. The device has siderails and has the option available to support the temporary or permanent placement of I.V. poles. A stretcher provides the caregiver a method of transporting patients within a healthcare facility. The device has two big wheels which reduce the required start-up force to move the stretcher. Some stretchers may also be used for minor procedures and short-term stay (treatment and recovery).

INTENDED USE OF PRODUCT - PRIME X OPTION

The Prime X option provides a platform for the short-term outpatient clinical evaluation and treatment of human patients and additionally may be used for minor procedures and short-term outpatient stay (treatment and recovery). The Prime X option provides an articulating radiographic patient support surface and a platform below the patient support surface for X-Ray cassette placement to allow the capture of clinical X-Rays (AP Full Body, optional Full Body Lateral, and optional Upright Chest) when used in conjunction with a medical X-Ray system. The Prime X option is a wheeled device consisting of a platform mounted on a wheeled frame that is designed to transport patients in a horizontal position within the interior of a healthcare facility by health professionals and/or trained representatives of the user facility. The device has siderails and optional supports for fluid infusion equipment.
The Prime X option is intended to be used to transport patients to and from all departments within the interior of a healthcare facility. The use of the Prime X option as a short-term outpatient clinical evaluation, treatment, minor procedure, and short-term outpatient recovery platform may include use in, but is not limited to, the Emergency Department (ED), including the Trauma area, and Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU). The Prime X option is not intended to be used for long-term inpatient treatment and recovery. See the specification table on page 10 for the intended environmental conditions.
The Prime X option has a safe working load up to 700 pounds (318 kg) and is intended to be used with all patients, including those mildly to critically ill. The stretcher may also be used to transport deceased patients within an enclosed healthcare facility.
The Prime X option has an optional scale system intended to measure and display weight in pounds or kilograms of patients weighing 50 to 700 pounds (22.7 to 318 kg) and patients not exceeding the height of 75.25 inches (191 cm). See the specification table for accuracy claims.

Summary of Safety Precautions

Carefully read and strictly follow the warnings and cautions listed within this manual. Service only by qualified personnel. See the maintenance manual for additional information.
WARNING
• This stretcher is equipped with a hospital grade plug for protection against electric shock hazard. It must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Grounding reliability can be achieved only when a hospital grade receptacle is used.
• Always apply the brakes when a patient is getting on or off the stretcher. Push on the stretcher to ensure that the brakes are securely locked. Always engage the brakes unless the stretcher is being moved. Injury could result if the stretcher moves while a patient is getting on or off the stretcher.
• Patients should be discouraged from sitting directly on the ends of the stretcher. Excessive weight could cause the litter surface to tip up, possibly causing patient injury.
• Leave the stretcher height in the lowest position when the patient is left unattended. Leaving the stretcher height in a raised position could increase the chance of patient falls and injury.
• Make sure that the brakes are completely released before attempting to move the unit. Attempting to move the unit with the brakes engaged could result in injury to the user and/or patient.
• After raising the siderails, pull firmly on the siderail to ensure that it is securely locked in the up position. Siderails are not intended to serve as a patient restraint device to keep patients from exiting the unit. Siderails are intended to keep a patient from inadvertently rolling off the unit. It is the responsibility of the attending medical personnel to determine the degree of restraint necessary to ensure that a patient will remain in place. Failure to utilize the siderails properly could result in patient injury.
• When lowering the siderail to the collapsed position, keep extremities of patients and staff away from the siderail spindles or injury could occur.
• Powered stretcher mechanisms can cause serious injury. Operate stretcher only with persons clear of mechanisms.
• Operation of the fowler is a manual procedure. Use caution when raising the fowler while a patient is on the
stretcher. Use proper lifting techniques and get additional assistance, if necessary. Failure to use proper lifting techniques could cause injury to the operator.
• Keep hands/fingers clear of the area around the fowler release handle and the fowler frame when lowering the fowler. Injury could result if care is not taken when lowering the fowler.
• To avoid the risk of injury, ensure that the gatch prop rod is fully raised and securely placed in position.
• Use caution when operating the gatch while a patient is on the stretcher. Powered stretcher mechanisms can
cause serious injury. Operate stretcher only with persons clear of mechanisms.
• Use caution when operating the recovery chair while a patient is on the stretcher. Powered stretcher mechanisms can cause serious injury. Operate stretcher only with persons clear of mechanisms.
• To avoid patient injury or equipment damage, all lines from any equipment stored on the pump rack must be diverted away from the gatch handles.
• To avoid patient injury or equipment damage, do not lift the stretcher by the pump rack.
• To avoid equipment damage, remove any equipment from the pump rack that may be in the way before lowering
the litter.
• To avoid equipment damage while transporting the stretcher, verify that any equipment on the pump rack can safely pass through door openings and under light fixtures.
• When using the Prime X option in conjunction with devices that generate X-radiation, the generating devices may produce residual, stray, and/or scattered radiation. Users should refer to local, state, and federal use guidelines, as well as appropriate facility protocols, for safety before use. Special attention should be given when performing X-Rays with the stretcher’s fowler in the upright position and also when performing X-Rays using a lateral cassette.

Summary of Safety Precautions
WARNING (CONTINUED)
• The Prime X option is not recommended for use with a Stryker Pioneer mattress or a mattress with a thickness greater than four inches and is not compatible for use with a C-Arm.
• To avoid the risk of patient or operator injury, ensure that all devices placed on the defibrillator tray are securely strapped to the tray.
• To avoid the risk of patient or operator injury, ensure that all devices placed on the foot extender/defibrillator tray are securely strapped to the tray.
• To avoid the risk of injury to the patient or user or damage to the I.V. pole while transporting the stretcher, make sure that the I.V. caddy is securely tightened on the I.V. pole.
• To avoid the risk of patient injury or equipment damage, do not sit on the foot support.
• Physical restraints, even if properly secured, may result in serious harm to patients and caregivers. The use of
restraint straps may potentially cause entanglement, entrapment, physical injury, and/or death. Caution must be used in affixing restraint straps to avoid potential injury to both patients and caregivers.
• Restraint straps and/or devices must be attached only at the identified attachment points of the unit. Failure to do so may result in patient or caregiver injury. Do not attach restraints straps to the siderail.
• This unit accommodates the use of ankle, chest, wrist, and body restraints. The use of restraint straps is regulated by state and federal restrictions. Users, caregivers, and/or practitioners should refer to the applicable state and federal restrictions and the appropriate facility protocols before using any restraint strap and/or device.
• If your unit is equipped with the optional electric lift/litter, unplug the power cord from the power outlet before transporting or cleaning the unit.
• This device does not offer any protection against X-Ray radiation.
• Do not steam clean the unit.
• To avoid malfunction, the optional scale system or optional electric lift/litter should not be used adjacent to or
stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the optional scale system or optional electric lift/litter should be observed to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
• When using any mattress thicker than 2.5 inches or when using a mattress overlay with the Prime X option, extra caution and operator supervision is recommended to reduce the risk of patient falls due to lesser siderail coverage.
• Do not immerse mattress in cleaning or disinfectant solutions. Excess moisture could cause equipment malfunction resulting in equipment damage or patient injury.
• Do not allow fluid to pool on the mattress. Fluids can cause corrosion of components and may cause the safety and performance of this equipment to become unpredictable.
• Inspect mattress covers for tears, punctures, excessive wear, and misaligned zippers each time the covers are cleaned. If compromised, the mattress should be removed from service immediately and replaced to prevent cross-contamination.
• Disinfect the mattress between patients. Failure to do so could result in cross-contamination and infection.
• The mattress cover must be completely dry before storage or adding linens. Failure to remove excess disinfectant
could cause degradation of the cover material.

DAMAGED MERCHANDISE
