Features WARNING: The retractable foot section provides multiple patient benefits. These include facilitating the prevention of footdrop, allowing chair mode patient ingress/egress, and preventing transmission of shear forces from the mattress to the patient during chair mode articulations. However, a retracted foot section may increase the risk of patient entanglement between the siderails and footboard for certain patients. If a potential for entanglement exists, such as with patients who are agitated or disoriented, or who lack the physical strength to extract themselves should they become entangled, the foot section should be left fully extended when the patient is not under direct supervision.

Trendelenburg And Reverse Trendelenburg Controls The TotalCare® Bed System is capable of 15° Trendelenburg and 15° Reverse Trendelenburg. The powered Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg controls can be activated at any bed height. The Reverse Trendelenburg control, controls the Preliminary Tilt Table feature (see “Preliminary Tilt Table” on page 8). The Trendelenburg feature includes Line-of-Site® Angle Indicators located in the intermediate siderails for determining Trendelenburg angles. To Activate: •

Trendelenburg – Press and hold the Trendelenburg control. The foot end of the bed system articulating frame raises relative to the head end.

•

Reverse Trendelenburg – Press and hold the Reverse Trendelenburg control. The head end of the bed system articulating frame raises relative to the foot end.

•

Return to flat position – Press the opposite control. (If in Trendelenburg – press Reverse Trendelenburg. If in Reverse Trendelenburg – press Trendelenburg.) When the level position is reached, the bed system will pause.

If the foot section is in the down position when Reverse Trendelenburg is activated, the foot section will automatically raise. This prevents the articulated foot section from interfering with the floor.

Preliminary Tilt Table The Preliminary Tilt table feature articulates the bed to a maximum of 20° Reverse Trendelenburg. 1. Press and hold the Reverse Trendelenburg control until full Reverse Trendelenburg is reached. The bed will pause. 2. Continue to hold the Reverse Trendelenburg; the bed will go to the Preliminary Tilt Table position.

TotalCare® Bed System and TotalCare® Duo® 2 System User Manual (147607 REV 7)

Features Bed Flat Control Bed Flat controls are provided so that a caregiver can easily return the patient deck to the level position from any articulated position. To Activate: Press and hold the Bed Flat control. The patient deck moves to the flat position in a two-step motion, first the articulating frame and then the individual sections. When all sections are flat, the system stops.

Boost® Position System The Boost® Position System allows for easier movement of the patient to the head end of the bed. 1. Press and hold the Boost control on the siderail. The bed will transition to the Trendelenburg position and if the bed has an air system, the mattress will go into Max-Inflate. 2. Release the Boost control when the desired position is reached. 3. Reposition the patient as needed. To return to the flat position, press the Bed Flat control and if the bed has an air system, press the Normal control for the surface.

Chair Positioning FullChair® Patient Position Mechanism Using the FullChair® Patient Position Mechanism, the caregiver can place the TotalCare® Bed System in one of three basic chair positions: chair, chair egress, and recliner. Chair positioning can only be accessed through the caregiver control panel. Patient articulation controls are automatically locked out while the system is in the chair or chair egress positions. Chair The head section rises to 65°, the knee section rises to 10°, and the foot section lowers to 70°. The chair feature allows the caregiver to place the patient in a fully seated position without having to remove the patient from the bed. The chair feature also provides a means to support the patient’s feet for comfort and security. To Activate: 1. Set the brake. 2. Press the Chair control. The patient deck transitions to the chair position. When the patient deck transitions to the chair position (Cradle Transition), the patient deck will slightly recline backwards as the seat and lumbar sections on the mattress slightly deflate. When the Chair control is released, the seat section will reinflate to normal pressures. 3. If the footboard is installed, when the articulation stops and a tone sounds, the system has reached the full chair position. TotalCare® Bed System and TotalCare® Duo® 2 System User Manual (147607 REV 7)

Features To Support Patient’s Feet: 1. Check for support in the full chair position. Many patients are adequately supported with no action required. 2. Retract the foot section if necessary. 3. For shorter patients, reverse the footboard so that the product label is up. 4. Move the mattress foot section up to remain within the footboard. 5. Adjust the foot section length using the Foot In control to position the legs correctly while maintaining foot support. Many shorter patients may not require that the footboard be reversed. Use of pillows and blankets may provide adequate support. Extremely short patients may require use of pillows and blankets in addition to reversing the footboard for adequate foot support. When the brake is not set and the bed system is in the chair or chair egress position, the Brake Not Set indicator flashes and an alarm will sound. If the footboard is installed with the bed in the maximum chair position and the chair control or foot down control is pressed, the Remove Footboard and chair indicators will flash and an audible alarm will sound.

WARNING: Check periodically to make sure the patient remains properly positioned. If necessary, use the optional seat belt to keep the patient from sliding or falling forward while in a chair position. Use of pillows can maintain side-to-side positioning. Injury to the patient may occur from improper positioning.

WARNING: Do not articulate the head section with the patient buckled with the Seat Belt. Patient injury can occur.

WARNING: Do not use the Seat Belt as a restraint device. The Seat Belt is only to maintain correct patient positioning in the chair position.

WARNING: The patient’s feet must be supported at all times while in the chair position. Extended periods of time without support can cause discomfort and reduced circulation. Refer to “FlexAfoot® Retractable Foot Control” on page 7, and/or move the patient down in the bed until the patient’s feet are supported. Injury to the patient may occur from improper positioning.

WARNING: Do not transport a patient with the bed in a chair position. Injury to the patient may occur.

CAUTION: Do not stand or sit on the footboard. Damage to equipment may occur.

TotalCare® Bed System and TotalCare® Duo® 2 System User Manual (147607 REV 7)

Features Chair Egress The head section rises to 75°, the knee section lowers to 0°, the foot section lowers to 85° and fully retracts, and the Hi-Lo lowers to its lowest height and the seat section partially deflates (pulmonary beds only). The chair egress feature allows the caregiver to easily position a patient to egress from the foot end of the TotalCare® Bed System. The FullChair® Patient Egress Position Mechanism is intended to facilitate patient egress and not long-term sitting. To Activate: 1. Make sure the casters are in the trailing position. 2. Set the brake. 3. Remove the footboard and foot end extenders if they are installed. 4. Press the Chair control. The patient deck transitions to the chair egress position. Monitor the patient as the system moves to the egress position. 5. Assist the patient with egress. When the brake is not set while the bed system is in the chair egress position, the Brake Not Set indicator flashes, and an alarm sounds. The TotalCare® Bed System will not move to the maximum position for the FullChair® Egress Position Mechanism until the footboard is removed. When the footboard is removed the Remove Footboard indicator goes out.

WARNING: If the patient is left sitting in the chair egress position, a thigh angle of 10° should be maintained, except during actual patient egress. The patient’s feet must be supported by the floor at all times while in the egress chair position. Injury to the patient may occur from improper positioning.

WARNING: Do not transport a patient with the bed in the chair egress position. Injury to the patient may occur.

WARNING: Do not use ankle restraints when activating this feature. Injury to the patient may occur.

WARNING: If bed sheets contact the floor during chair egress use, follow standard infection control procedures.

CAUTION: Do not install the footboard in the chair egress position. The Remove Footboard indicator flashes and an alarm sounds. When moving the bed out of the chair egress position, a beep sounds to remind the caregiver to install the footboard. TotalCare® Bed System and TotalCare® Duo® 2 System User Manual (147607 REV 7)
