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, national healthcare
organizations, resident and patient 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 residents and patients in all
healthcare 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 assist rails
in various healthcare 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.
•
WarNINg: Risk of serious injury or death. Use
a properly sized mattress in order to minimize the
gap between the side of the mattress and the assist
rail. This gap must be small enough to prevent a
resident from getting his or her head or neck caught
in this location. Make sure raising or lowering the
bed, or articulating the sleep surface, does not create
hazardous gaps. Failure to do so could result in serious
injury or death.
•
WarNINg: Risk of serious injury or death.
Properly locate the mounting brackets for the assist
rail. The gap between the head/foot panel and
the assist rail must be large enough to prevent a
resident from getting his or her head or neck caught
in this location (see the installation instructions for
more information). If multiple assist rails are needed,
position them such that the gap between them is
large enough for the trunk and hips to easily pass
through. Make sure raising or lowering the bed,
or articulating the sleep surface, does not create
hazardous gaps. Failure to do so could result in
serious injury or death.

Important Warnings
•
WarNINg: Risk of serious injury or death. Do not
use this assist rail if any openings within the assist rail
body will allow a resident to get his or her head or neck
lodged within these openings. Failure to do so could
result in serious injury or death.
•
WarNINg: Risk of serious injury or death. Do not
use this assist rail until you have verified it is locked in
place. Injury to resident or caregiver may result if this
procedure is not followed.
•
WarNINg: An optimal bed system assessment
should be conducted on each resident by a qualified
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.

WarNINg: In the event worn or broken parts
are identified, remove the device from service until
repairs are made. Do not use substitute parts. Use only
Panacea replacement parts. Non-Panacea replacement
parts could cause entrapment, personal injury, and
damage to bedrails.
NoTe: The assist rail is intended for use as an aid
in entering or exiting the bed sleep area, as well as
a stable handhold during self-positioning within the
bed sleep area. The devices may deform or break
when subjected to excessive side pressure. Do not
exert side pressure on the bed rails. Do not use
them as push handles for moving the bed. These
activities could result in personal injury and damage
to the bedrails.
This assist rail is only one part of your healthcare bed
system. Proper combinations of bed, mattress, head/
foot panels and assist rails are needed to minimize the
risk of entrapment. For more information, contact your
Direct Supply account manager.
•
WarNINg: Do not permit residents to climb over
the device.
•
WarNINg: Some states may prohibit assist rails
or consider assist rails to be resident restraints. Always
assess whether restraints are necessary on a case-
by-case basis and document the need for any resident
restraint. Contact your state surveyor for further
guidance regarding siderails and restraints.
