WARNING: Reducing the Risk of Entrapment

The Hospital Bed Safety Workgroup (HBSW), in partnership with the FDA, has recognized potential

entrapment zones in hospital bed systems and has developed dimensional guidance to reduce

the risk of entrapment. The FDA considers the term "hospital bed system" to encompass the bed

frame and its components, including the mattress, bed siderails, head- and footboards, and any

accessories to the bed.

The entrapment zones involve the relationship of components controlled by the healthcare facility

or individual user. Compliance to the dimensional guidelines for reducing the risk of entrapment

is primarily the responsibility of the healthcare facility or the individual user. Anyone having any

involvement with hospital bed systems should review and understand the FDA guidelines. These

guidelines, entitled "Hospital Bed System Dimensional and Assessment Guidance to Reduce

Entrapment - Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, " are available at the FDA website. 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 restrains

and bed system entrapment guidance.

ImPORTANT NOTE: When using the mattress system, always ensure that the resident is positioned

properly within the confines of the bed. Do not let any extremities protrude over the side or between

the bed rails when the mattress is being used.

WARNING: Steps to Reduce the Risk of Fires

• Inspect all cords for damage, including the power cord and hand pendant.

• Connect the power cord directly into a wall-mounted outlet that is in good working order, with no

cracks or chips. The plug should fit tightly into the outlet.

• Do not use power strips, extension cords or multiple-outlet strips. Connect directly to a secure

wall-mounted outlet.

• Do not cover any power cord with rugs, linens, cloths or other items that may cause heat to build up.

Heat may build up or the cord may be damaged.

• Check surrounding equipment for signs of excessive heat or physical damage.

• Inspect the floor beneath the bed for buildup of dust and lint. Ask housekeeping to clean if necessary.

• Inspect the resident's bed controls, looking for signs of damage where liquids could leak in.

• Test the bed and its controls, including resident lockout features, to ensure that the bed can move

freely in both directions without damaging any cords.

• Keep linens and clothes away from power sources.

• Tell maintenance staff about any unusual sounds, burning odors or unusual movement of bed.

• If you suspect overheating, follow your facility's policy for fire safety and move the resident to a safe

area if necessary.

WARNING: Possible Injury Or Death. Locate mounting brackets for assist devices strictly according

to instructions. Gap between head/ foot panel and assist device must be small enough or large enough

to prevent resident/patient from getting his/her head or neck caught in this location (see specific Assist

Device Installation Instructions for more information). If multiple assist devices are used, position each

so that gap between them is large enough for trunk and hips to pass through easily. Make sure raising

or lowering bed, or contouring mattress support platform does not create any hazardous gaps. Failure

to do so could result in injury or death.

ImPORTANT NOTE: Powered air mattress surfaces may pose a risk of entrapment. Prior to use, ensure

the therapeutic benefits outweigh the risk of entrapment.
