Spirit Plus™ Bed – Quick Reference Guide

To Operate the Bed:

Use the footboard staff control, rail controls, or the pendant to raise or lower the head section, the knee section, or the entire bed.

To Operate Electronic CPR:

PRESS and HOLD the CPR button to flatten both the head and knee sections simultaneously.

To Operate Trendelenburg:

PRESS and HOLD the TREND (Trendelenburg) or rev.TREND (Reverse Trendelenburg) button on the

footboard control to achieve either function. To level the bed, PRESS and hold the opposite function until the bed automatically stops in the horizontal position.

To Operate ‘Chair’:

PRESS and HOLD the CHAIR button. Green LED illuminates when full CHAIR position is achieved. PRESS and HOLD CHAIR button again to level bed. If Green LED is not illuminated PRESS and HOLD

the CPR button to flatten both the head and knee sections and PRESS and HOLD the TREND button until the bed automatically stops in the horizontal position.

To Operate ‘Auto Contour’:

Press the CONTOUR button so that the green light is on. Knee section will raise automatically when head section is raised. (NOTE: KNEE lock-out will override Auto Contour).

Lock-Outs:

The side rail controls and pendant can be locked or unlocked (to restrict patient use). Lock-outs for each bed function are located on the footboard staff control underneath each function. When the LOCK button LED is illuminated, patient control of that particular function with the side rail controls or pendant is restricted. If the LOCK button LED is not illuminated, then patient control of that function is permitted.

Master Lock-Out:

To restrict all side rail, pendant,

footboard controls, press all three LOCK buttons simultaneously (the LOCK button LED’s will sequentially flash). When Master Lock-Out has been activated, the Electronic CPR function and Nurse Call remains operable.

To Operate Plastic Siderails:

To lower the rails, gently depress the green PRESS button, then rotate the rail down. Head rails rotate toward the headboard, foot rails rotate toward the footboard. The rail will automatically lock in the UP position.

To Move and Lock the Bed:

Use the Central “Lock & Steer” system:

BRAKE: All four wheels are locked in “BRAKE” mode STEER: Foot-end wheels are locked in “STEER” mode, head-end wheels swivel freely NEUTRAL: All four wheels swivel freely in “NEUTRAL” mode

During extended periods of disconnect from an AC power outlet, the battery is susceptible to permanent

damage caused by being deep discharged. All Spirit™ beds are equipped with a disconnect feature which

automatically disengages the battery from the battery circuit to prevent damage from being deep discharged. There is no need to disconnect the battery when a Spirit™ bed is going to be put into storage, however, the CB10 or CB11 control box will continue to draw power until the battery voltage has hit the 18V threshold which triggers the automatic circuit disconnection.

IMPORTANT: A battery voltage of 18V is insufficient to operate the bed. Reconnect bed to an AC power outlet as soon as possible to and allow battery to charge for a period of 24hr to ensure that the bed will reliably operate on battery power when needed.

IMPORTANT: To conserve battery life during storage and transport, disconnect the battery from the CB10 or

CB11 control box. On Spirit™ beds equipped with CB10 control boxes, even if a battery was fully charged

when it was unplugged from the control box, the bed will not operate on battery power if the battery is simply reconnected to the control box. The bed must be connected to an AC power outlet to energize the battery circuit. This will enable bed operation on battery power. On Spirit™ beds equipped with CB11 control boxes, the bed will become operational when the battery is reconnected.

CAUTION

DO NOT re-use any original packaging material to transport the bed.

ALWAYS transport the bed by rolling the bed on its casters.

ALWAYS ensure the Central “Lock & Steer” system is in the “BRAKE” position before

attempting to lift/lower bed. ALWAYS ensure that the Central “Lock & Steer” system is in the “BRAKE” position after the bed is loaded onto transportation vehicle. Use additional

strapping or tie downs as necessary to ensure the bed does not move while in transport.

DO NOT use the siderails as a means of mechanically restraining the bed during

transportation and/or storage. DO NOT use the siderails as lifting points for the bed during transportation and/or storage.

NOTE:

CHG Hospital Beds recommends that following any storage and/or transportation in extreme temperature conditions that you allow the bed to acclimatize for a period of at least 24 hours before the bed is operated/powered up and/or put into service.

CAUTION

When beds are configured with no side rails: Keep the bed in the lowest position with the wheels locked and patient lock-outs on as prescribed by the care plan when occupied, adjusting the level for activities such as administering care or for patient transfers in/out of bed. Transport patients as prescribed by the care plan.

1.17 Ultra-Low Feature

The Spirit™ product line is a family of ultra-low beds, designed to reduce patient injury due to falls out of bed. Therefore, in an effort to reduce patient injury, CHG Hospital Beds recommends that you ALWAYS lower the bed completely to the lowest position before leaving a patient unattended.

When configuring a bed with no rails:

Regardless of the purpose for which bed rails are being used or considered, a decision to utilize or remove those in current use should occur within the framework of an individual patient assessment. For Further information refer to the FDA’s website at http:/www.fda.gov/cdrh/beds/ for Clinical Guidance for the Assessment and Implementation of Bed Rails in Hospital, Long Term Care Facilities, and Home Care Settings.

Available floor mats, mattresses with side bolsters, bed exit alarm, and nurse call can be used in conjunction with the low bed based on the patient assessment and care plan.

3.2 Bed Control

Depending on the Spirit™ bed you purchased, you will have two or three locations for controlling bed functions.

Control Location

Spirit Plus™

Spirit Select™

Patient Handheld Control (Pendant)

Optional

Footboard Staff Control

Standard

Enhanced

Patient/Staff Siderail Controls

Standard

All Spirit™ beds can be configured to connect an optional patient, handheld, 6 function control (pendant).

The pendant offers patient control of basic bed operations:

 Head UP/DOWN,  Knee/Foot UP/DOWN

 Bed UP/DOWN

Pendant Storage

The pendant can be affixed to the bed using a holder. The pendant slips into the holder for easy location and convenient patient access.

On Spirit™ beds equipped with high siderails:

Install the pendant holder into the opening in either foot rail panel. To permanently affix the holder to the bed, screws the holder to the foot rail panel with the fasteners provided.

Optionally, the pendant can be secured to the bed linens with the linen clip provided. Choose a clip location so that the pendant is within easy reach by the patient.

Pendant Connection

The pendant can be connected on either side of the bed (the connection port is just beneath the seat section of the mattress deck on both sides of the bed).

To relocate the pendant to the opposite side of the bed, first, unscrew the threaded retaining cap then carefully disconnect the jack. Reconnect the pendant control cable to the existing port on the other side of the bed.

Pendant Port Alignment and Care

Ensure that the indexing arrows are aligned to enable connection. Insert pendant cable into pendant port until O-ring seats into pendant port and then thread on retaining cap to retain this connection.

To ensure that the pendant port remains free of dirt and debris, ALWAYS cap any pendant port not in use. The threaded cap is simply screwed onto the unused end of the pendant T-cable.

If you relocate the pendant to the other side of the bed, ensure that you cap the unused pendant port.

3.5 Patient Lock-Out Functions

Patient Lock-Outs restrict the patient from initiating head, knee, and bed motion from the siderail controls or the pendant (if equipped). The degree of restriction depends on the Lock-Out option selected.

Activating Patient Lock-Out

Staff may choose to restrict patient access to one, two, or all three bed functions. To restrict a bed function, press the Patient Lock-Out button under that particular function. The yellow LED in the top right corner of the button (Spirit Plus™) or the entire Lock-Out button (Spirit Select™) will illuminate when patient control of a particular function has been Locked-Out.

IMPORTANT: Patient Lock-Outs restrict bed operation from both of the siderail controls and pendant (if equipped).

Deactivating Patient Lock-Out

To deactivate any/all Patient Lock-Out(s), simply press the Patient Lock-Out button(s) again. When a Patient Lock-Out button is no longer illuminated, patient control of that particular function has been restored.

NOTE:

When Patient Lock-Outs have been activated, the footboard staff control remains fully active.

To completely restrict access to all bed functions (except the Electronic CPR function) from all control locations (staff and patient controls), use the Master Lock-Out function.

Activating Master Lock-Out

To activate the Master Lock-Out, press-and-hold all three Patient Lock-Out

buttons at the same time. All three yellow LED’s in the top right corner of the three Patient Lock-Out buttons (Spirit Plus™) or all three entire Patient Lock-Out buttons (Spirit Select™) will flash sequentially to indicate that Master Lock-Out has been

activated.

IMPORTANT: Master Lock-Out restricts bed operation from all control locations (both siderail controls and the footboard staff control).

Deactivating Master Lock-Out

To deactivate the Master Lock-Out function, simply repeat this process. Press-andhold all three Patient Lock-Out buttons at the same time. When all three Patient

Lock-Out buttons are no longer flashing sequentially, Master Lock-Out has been deactivated and both staff and patient control from all control locations has been restored.

NOTE:

When Master Lock-Out has been activated, the Electronic CPR function, Nurse Call, and the

underbed light remain operable. On Spirit Select™ beds, the bed exit feature also remain

operable.

WARNING

When a patient is left unattended, the bed should ALWAYS be lowered to its lowest position and the bed elevation controls should be locked-out in order to reduce the risk of patient injury.

3.5.2 Master Lock-Out

Page 51

1-70-001 – R User Manual - Spirit Bed

Page 51 of 159

3.5.3 Security Lock-Out

The Security Lock-Out feature allows for a high-security lock-out of ALL bed functions (including the Electronic CPR function). A

“User Passcode”

is required to perform any/all bed functions. The Security

Lock-Out feature must be activated or deactivated as required by the facility.

IMPORTANT: The manual CPR release function on bed (if equipped) remains operational.

WARNING

IMPORTANT: When the Security Lock-Out feature has been activated, ALL bed operation including the Electronic CPR function from any control location (footboard staff

control, both siderail controls, and pendant) is restricted.

Activating the Security Lock-Out Feature

To deactivate the Security Lock-Out feature, a User Passcode must first be created. The User Passcode must be between 1 and 6 digits long. The digits are interpreted from a virtual numeric keypad superimposed over the footboard staff control buttons. Imagine the numbers 1 2 3, 4 5 6, 7 8 9, just as they would appear on a telephone. This is demonstrated below.

Spirit Plus™ keypad

Spirit Select™ keypad

Guidelines for Choosing a User Passcode

The number of digits chosen for the User Passcode will determine the level of security provided. A single digit User Passcode is easy for staff to remember and unlock but offers virtually no security. A six digit User Passcode offers very high security but may be a nuisance to staff.

 It is recommended that simple “lines” such as 1-2-3 or 1-4-7 are not chosen since they are relatively

easy to guess.

 It is recommended that the code contains at least one of the Patient Lock-Out buttons (7, 8, or 9)

since these buttons are not generally used during normal bed operation therefore adding an enhanced level of security.

 Codes that contain repeating digits (i.e.: 1-3-1-7) can enhance security since they are considerably

less likely to be guessed.

 Codes that contain patterns of digits (i.e.: all four corners) can help staff remember the User

Passcode but offer slightly less security than random codes.

Creating/Changing User Passcode

A User Passcode must first be created before the Security Lock-Out feature can be activated.

To Create the User Passcode:

1. Press the Bed Lock-Out, Knee Lock-Out, and Contour buttons simultaneously. These three Lock-Out

buttons will then begin to flash to indicate that the bed is now ready to receive the Security Access Code.

2. Enter the Security Access Code.

Security Access Code: “1881 825 153”

IMPORTANT: This Security Access Code is factory set and is not customizable

3. Once the Security Access Code has been successfully entered, an audible “chirp” will sound three

times and the Contour button will also begin to flash to indicate that the bed is now ready to receive the customized User Passcode.

4. Enter a 1 to 6 digit User Passcode of your choosing. Time-out will occur if more than 30 seconds

elapses between User Passcode digit input.

5. When the User Passcode has been entered, press the Contour button to complete the process. An

audible “chirp” will sound to indicate that the User Passcode has been set and that the Security LockOut feature has now been activated.

NOTE: DO NOT allow patients to learn either the Security Access Code or the User Passcode or the Security Lock-Out feature could become compromised!

To Change the User Passcode:

In the event that the User Passcode has been lost or compromised, a new User Passcode can be created. Simply repeat the above steps to change the User Passcode. The User Passcode can be changed as often as required to maintain effective control of the Security Lock-Out feature

If, for some reason, you wish to abort the User Passcode creation/change procedure, simply press the Bed Lock-Out, Knee Lock-Out, and Contour buttons simultaneously to exit User Passcode set up mode. An audible “chirp” will sound twice and the bed will return to its previous state (Security Lock-Out activated or deactivated). The bed will also automatically return to its previous state after 30 seconds of keypad inactivity.

Locking/Unlocking the Bed for use by Staff

To enable any/all bed functions, the bed must be unlocked.

To unlock the Security Lock-Out:

1. Enter the 1 to 6 digit User Passcode.

2. Once the User Passcode has been successfully entered, an audible “chirp” will sound and the three

Patient Lock-Out buttons will begin to flash to indicate that the bed is now unlocked. All bed functions are now available from all control locations (the footboard staff control and both siderail controls).

IMPORTANT: There is no feedback during this step. If you make a mistake, or if nothing happens after the User Passcode has been entered, simply re-enter the User Passcode starting at the first digit again There is

no need to “cancel” or abort the procedure if you make a mistake while entering the User Passcode as the bed is “looking” only for the complete sequence of digits that comprise the User Passcode.

To re-lock the bed:

When you are finished adjusting the bed positions, press any one of the flashing Patient Lock-Out buttons to re-lock the bed. An audible “chirp” will sound twice to indicate the bed has been re-locked.

The bed will automatically re-lock after 30 seconds of keypad inactivity.

3.6 Other Bed Functions & Features

All Spirit™ beds are equipped with one Nurse Call port to accommodate Nurse Call control.

The Nurse Call port is located on the underside of the headboard mounting bracket on the patient right side of the bed.

To operate the Nurse Call feature, press the red NURSE button on the rail patient control (inside of each head rail control). This will send a Nurse Call signal to the nurses’ station when appropriately connected to the communication system of your healthcare facility.

Operation of the Nurse Call feature requires a conventional connection cable

(not supplied) to be plugged into the ¼” Phono jack on the headboard

mounting bracket and into the designated outlet in the patient station.

Ensure that the attached “dummy plug” is inserted to an inactive Nurse Call port.

The “dummy plug” has an integral lanyard that is screw connected to the headboard mounting bracket to ensure that the “dummy plug” is not lost

when the Nurse Call port is being used. All Spirit™ beds are equipped with a standard 37 pin connector to accommodate connection to the

communication system typical of most healthcare facilities.

The 37 pin connector is located on the underside of the headboard mounting bracket directly beside the Nurse Call port on the patient right side of the bed.

The “pin outs” for the 37 pin connector have been configured to work with the communication set-up typical of most 37 pin enabled healthcare facilities. If the configuration of the communication system used in your healthcare facility differs from conventional set-up, successful interconnection can only be guaranteed through the use of interconnection cables that have been specifically configured for your application.

If your healthcare facility requires a particular interconnection cable configuration, CHG Hospital Beds offers customized interconnection cables. Contact your sales representative for details.

The bed has been disconnected from an AC power outlet and the battery has been automatically disengaged from the battery circuit because the voltage has dropped below 18VDC. Reconnect bed to an AC power outlet and allow battery to charge for 24hr.

NOTE:

A new back-up battery, when fully charged, has sufficient power to deliver the equivalent of approximately 5 CPR cycles with a patient weight of 250 lbs. Battery power discharge rate depends upon factors such as patient weight, age of battery, ambient temperature and humidity, and the number of charge/discharge cycles the battery has been subjected to. For example, the heavier the patient, the faster battery power will be exhausted during battery powered bed operation. Conversely, the lighter the patient, battery power may offer a longer duration of battery powered bed operation.

3.7 Siderail Operation

WARNING

Safe Working Load of Siderails

80 kg (176 lbs)

DO NOT exceed a 80 kg (176 lbs) load on any siderail

WARNING

Possible PATIENT ENTRAPMENT if use of siderails that are damaged or modified in any way.

NEVER use siderails from other manufacturers and/or with dimensions different that the original components and/or assemblies that came equipped with the bed. Variations in siderail design, (width, height, shape, profiles, opening, locking/latching mechanisms, etc.) could cause/contribute to patient entrapment and/or could potentially increase the probability/possibility for patient entrapment.

CAUTION

DO NOT use the siderails as a patient lifting device/apparatus. Siderails can be deformed or broken if excessive side loading/pressure is exerted. The siderails are used for the purpose of preventing a patient from inadvertently rolling out of bed.

DO NOT use the siderails as part of a patient restraint mechanism. Siderails are NOT intended for nor may be used for restraint purposes. If a patient is capable of inflicting self-injury or injury to staff, a physician or other suitably trained healthcare practitioner should be consulted for alternate means of safe patient restraint. The Spirit™ bed is equipped with 6 patient restraint loops for this purpose.

CAUTION

When operating the bed, ALWAYS ensure that the individuals using the bed is positioned properly on the mattress within the confines of the bed.

DO NOT let any patient extremities protrude over the side and/or between the siderails when operating the bed.

CAUTION

DO NOT use the siderails as lifting points for the bed during transportation and/or storage.

DO NOT use the siderails as a means of mechanically restraining the bed during transportation

and/or storage.

All Spirit™ bed siderail assemblies fully comply with FDA and Health Canada patient entrapment reduction guidelines and have successfully passed rail entrapment testing using test procedures outlined by the Hospital Bed Safety Workgroup. Spirit™ bed siderail assemblies were qualified using the Cone and Cylinder Tool as specified by FDA and Health Canada patient entrapment reduction guidelines. Entrapment Test Kits are readily available so on-going compliance can be monitored by the healthcare provider. For further information, refer to the FDA’s website at http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/beds/.

3.7.1 Intended Application/Use of Spirit™ Bed Siderail Assemblies

When fully raised/closed and locked/latched in the UP position, the siderails define a residence area for patients to rest upon the bed. This provides positive patient location/support helping to protect against the potential for patients to fall from the bed as the siderails give the patient a visual and physical indicator of the edge of the bed. When fully lowered/open in the DOWN position, the siderails permit patient ingress to and egress from the bed. The integral handles common to all siderails facilitate patient mobility by providing a gripping region during ingress to and egress from the bed.

4.2 Patient Weigh Scale

All Spirit Select™ beds are equipped with an integral scale to facilitate the weighing of patients while in the bed. The scale is always activated and will display the patient’s weight in either kilograms (KG) or pounds (LB)

depending upon which unit of measure has been set for patient weight display. The factory default for patient weight display is imperial pounds (LB). This setting can be changed in the Maintenance Menu.

The Spirit Select™ scale is very sensitive. The patient can be weighed in any bed position but patient weight will be determined and displayed most accurately when the bed is in the flat position with nothing touching the bed and the bed is not contacting the wall, patient station, or any other equipment.

ACCURACY: The Spirit Select™ scale system has an accuracy of ±3 lbs (1.4 kg) for patients weighing 50 to 110 lbs (22.7 to 49.9 kg) and ±3% of the total patient weight for patients weighing 110 to 500 lbs (49.9 to

226.8 kg). The specified scale accuracy pertains to Mattress Deck Heights from 17 in (431.8 mm) to 34 in (863.6 mm) in the horizontal position.

WARNING

The scale output is NOT intended to be used to determine diagnosis or treatment.

CAUTION

To ensure the accuracy of the scale and alarms, keep the area around and/or under the bed open and free of obstructions and/or equipment.

To ensure optimal scale accuracy, CHG Hospital Beds recommends that the siderails be fully raised/closed and locked/latched in the UP position before reading patient weight.

Zeroing the Scale (Establish Tare Value)

LB units used for this example

1. Press-and-hold the 0.0/ZERO button for 3

seconds. During this period, a message will be displayed to remind staff that the patient must not be in the bed while attempting to zero the scale.

2. Release the 0.0/ZERO button immediately

when instructed.

DO NOT TOUCH BED

during the zeroing

process.

4. Ensure that the home screen is displaying a

weight of 0.0 LB before allowing the patient to enter the bed.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT zero the scale with a patient in the bed. This will result in a zero patient weight being displayed. If the scale is accidentally zeroed with a patient on the bed, remove patient from bed, re-zero scale and return patient to bed.

During patient care, you may wish to temporarily override the Bed Exit Auto Arm feature. For example, if it may be necessary to temporarily position a patient on the bed for a period greater than one minute which will cause the Bed Exit Alarm to automatically arm. As expected any patient motion after the Bed Exit Alarm has automatically armed may trigger a nuisance alarm (depending on the Zone selected).

During such patient care, it is possible to temporarily delay or “pause” the Auto Arm feature for 60, 90 or 120

seconds. A countdown timer is displayed. During the final 10 seconds of this countdown a series of warning “chirps” will sound. While the countdown is in progress, the Bed Exit Alarm will not Auto Arm.

When the countdown is nearing its end, Auto Arm Pause can be extended (up to 5 additional minutes, or 300 seconds, may be added). While the Auto Arm Pause countdown is in progress, the countdown can be set to zero at any time, re-establishing the normal Auto Arm feature.

To set an Auto Arm Pause, the Auto Arm feature must first be enabled. To enable Bed Exit Alarm Auto Arm, refer to the previous section. Maximum delay time: 300 seconds

From the BED EXIT Menu:

1. Press the UP/DOWN arrow buttons to the AUTO ARM PAUSE screen.

2. Press the ON/ENTER button to enter this menu option. The current selection will be shown.

3. Press the UP/DOWN arrow buttons to add/remove delay time in 30 second increments.

4.6 Watchdog™ Bed Monitoring System

If your Spirit Select™ bed has been equipped with the optional Watchdog Bed Monitoring System, the bed will be outfitted with a bumper light installed beneath the footboard in the center of the frame and a unique footboard staff control as shown below. The Watchdog Bed Monitoring System has the following modes of operation:

CAUTION

Always keep watchdog light free and clear of all obstructions. Ensure the watchdog light is always visible and not obstructed by linens, equipment, etc.

The Watchdog feature is used to monitor and indicate if a change has been made to the bed position or the status of important bed features. On bed power up, the bed defaults to “prepare bed for Watchdog arm” which allows the user 10 seconds (after last key press) to set the desired position of the bed. The Watchdog light will illuminate BLUE. The bed is now being monitored for bed position changes and important bed features.

A stationary bed is critical to patient safety. Therefore the status of the caster lock (brake) is continuously monitored. Whenever the caster lock (brake) is not engaged, the Watchdog lights will be illuminated Solid RED.

IMPORTANT: Continuous monitoring by this WATCHDOG mode is only possible when the bed is running on AC power (plugged into a wall outlet).

Patient Weight GAIN used in this example

Any weight gain or loss is experienced by the patient will be displayed within parenthesis accompanied with either a “+” or “-” sign to indicate patient weight gain or loss respectively.

The home screen which will now sequentially flash

to display the original “snapshot” patient weigth

and the current, real time weight change that the patient has experienced.

SEQUENTIALLY FLASH

When the Weight Change Alarm function is set, the bed takes snapshots of the patient’s weight and stores this value. Weight change is a time related event and is assumed to occur gradually. If the difference in the

patient’s weight equals or exceeds the set amount after an elapsed period of an hour, a weight change

alarm is triggered.

If the difference is significantly greater than the set amount, the bed assumes that this occurrence is not related to patient weight change (example: a healthcare practitioner or family member is likely sitting on and/or something has been placed on the bed without using the “Change Equipment” feature – refer to previous section for instructions). In this case the bed simply ignores this change and a patient weight change alarm will not be triggered in this instance.

Patient Weight GAIN used in this example

When a weight change alarm is triggered, a warning message will be displayed and the bed will also send a priority call via the Nurse Call system (if connected). There is no audio component to this alarm.

4.8.4 Head Angle Settings

Depending upon the preference of your healthcare facility, it is possible to set the origin for the head angle that is displayed on the second home page of the LCD display.

IMPORTANT: This setting impacts the displayed head angle when the bed is in a Trendelenburg, reversed Trendelenburg, or Chair position (ie: when the bed frame is not parallel with the floor).

When the bed frame is in the horizontal position, the bed frame is parallel with the floor. In this case, the head angle that is displayed would be the same if either setting was selected.

Displayed head angle when measured:

 FROM FLOOR: 45°  FROM FRAME: 45°
