2. Clinical Applications WARNING To ensure the patient can use the bed safely, their age and condition should be assessed by a clinically qualified person. The use of head down tilt (Trendelenburg) or foot down tilt (reverse Trendelenburg) may be contraindicated for certain medical conditions. The tilt facility should only be used under the guidance of a clinically qualified person after assessment of the patient’s condition. Intended use This product is intended to provide support to patients during a stay in hospital or other care facility and allows positioning for CPR and Trendelenburg. The bed is suitable for use in the following situations: • Intensive/critical care provided in a hospital where 24hour medical supervision and constant monitoring is required, e.g. ITU, ICU and CCU (*Application Environment 1). • Acute care provided in a hospital or other medical facility where medical supervision and monitoring is required, e.g. general medical and surgical wards (*Application Environment 2). • Long term care in a medical area where medical supervision is required and monitoring is provided if necessary, e.g. nursing homes and geriatric facilities (*Application Environment 3). * Application Environments are defined in IEC 60601-2-52.

Indications

The bed is appropriate for high dependency patients who pose a movement and handling risk and / or whose clinical condition requires that they are positioned with minimal physical handling. Patients with a moderate amount of independence can, at the caregiver’s discretion, use the controls to adjust their own position. The mattress platform can be positioned to assist with such clinical procedures as may be required in the Application Environments defined above.

746-585-UK-1

Contraindications

The bed is not suitable for use in the following situations: • A domestic area, i.e. home healthcare (*Application Environment 4). • Outpatient care (*Application Environment 5). * Application Environments are defined in IEC 60601-2-52. The bed is not suitable for patients under 40kg in weight. The maximum recommended patient weight is 185kg. The safe working load (SWL) of the bed is 250kg. The safe working load is calculated as follows (in accordance with IEC 60601-2-52): Maximum patient weight... 185kg Mattress ... 20kg Accessories (including attached loads) ... 45kg TOTAL

... 250kg

WARNING If the combined weight of the mattress and accessories exceeds 65kg, the maximum patient weight must be reduced accordingly. The recommended patient height is between 146cm and 190cm. At the discretion of the caregiver, patients taller than 190cm may be accommodated by extending the bed - refer to Bed length adjustment on page 15. Ensure that the patient’s height does not exceed the In-bed length shown on page 41.

3. Installation The following chapter describes how to install the Enterprise E8000X hospital bed.

WARNING If the power supply cord or plug is damaged, the complete assembly must be replaced by authorised service personnel. Do not remove the fitted plug, or use a rewireable plug or adapter. Make sure the power supply cord is not stretched, kinked or crushed. Do not allow the power supply cord to trail on the floor where it may cause a trip hazard. Make sure the power supply cord does not become entangled with moving parts of the bed or trapped between the bed frame and head board. Disconnect the power supply cord from the electricity supply, and store it as shown, before moving the bed. Caution Before the first use, or if the bed has been unused for more than three months, connect the bed to the electricity supply for at least 24 hours to allow the backup battery to recharge fully; failure to do this may reduce the life of the battery. After charging, check that the battery is fully serviceable by carrying out a battery test as shown on page 36.

Power supply cord and potential equalisation terminal

When the bed is connected to the electricity supply, an indicator will light on the Attendant Control Panel (see page 25). The power supply cord (1) is fitted with a plastic hook (2). When not in use or before moving the bed, clip the hook onto the head board, coil up the cable and place it over the hook as shown. To isolate the bed from the electricity supply, disconnect the mains plug from the socket outlet. A potential equalisation terminal (3) is located at the head end of the bed. When other electrical equipment is within reach of the patient or caregiver, potential differences between the equipment can be minimised by connecting together their potential equalisation terminals.

Underbed light

The underbed light illuminates the floor on either side of the bed. The underbed light is always on unless the bed is in its low power state; refer to the section “Low power mode” on page 30.

Mattresses

WARNING Always use a mattress of the correct size and type. Incompatible mattresses can create hazards. Entrapment hazards may exist when using a very soft mattress, even if it is the correct size. The maximum recommended mattress thickness for use with side rails is 18cm. Read the instructions for use supplied with the mattress. Where the maximum patient weight specified for the mattress is different to that specified for the bed, the lower value applies. A label on the calf extension sheet indicates the correct mattress size:

Mattress size label

The numbers 1, 2 and 3 on the label indicate different mattress platform lengths; refer to Bed length adjustment on page 15.

746-585-UK-1

Mattresses and When choosing bed and mattress combinations, it is important side rails to consider the use of side rails based on clinical assessment

of each individual patient and in line with local policy. When assessing the suitability of a mattress for use with side rails, the following factors should be considered: • The bed is designed to provide an acceptable side rail height when used with a foam mattress up to 18cm thick. • Specialist powered air / foam replacement mattresses will typically envelop the patient when loaded and can generally be deeper than a foam mattress without compromising safety. Other makes of specialist mattress replacement must be assessed individually prior to use to verify sufficient clearance is maintained. • Mattress overlays are not recommended for use with this bed. • To ensure compliance with IEC 60601-2-52, an approved ArjoHuntleigh mattress should be used. Compliance with this standard when using other mattresses must be validated by the user. • For more information on suitable mattresses and mattress replacements, contact your local ArjoHuntleigh office or approved distributor. A list of ArjoHuntleigh offices can be found at the back of this manual.
