1.

If using a mattress replacement system, which is intended to completely replace the bed mattress, remove any existing mattress from the bed frame. If using a mattress overlay system, ensure bed frame to be used has an existing mattress in place.

2.

Place the mattress on the bed frame/existing bed mattress. If using a powered mattress ensure the mattress hose exits at the foot end on the right hand side and the coloured cover is uppermost.

3.

Secure the mattress to the bed frame/existing mattress using adjustable straps - pass straps beneath or around bed frame mattress platform/ bed mattress and secure with the buckles (Fig. 1), allowing for moving components on electric bed frames. This is important as it stops the mattress becoming detached from the bed frame/existing bed mattress and causing possible injury to the patient. A strap extension kit is available for use with divan beds (part number 97-50-10-153).

Fig. 1

Fig. 2

4.

Suspend the power unit from the foot board of the bed having first adjusted the hanger brackets as instructed at the rear of the unit. Alternatively the power unit may be placed on the floor.

5.

Attach the air supply hose to the power unit by aligning the black line on the air supply hose connector with the black line on the power unit connector and pushing together. Rotate the mattress hose connector clockwise until the green indicator fills the indicator hole on the power unit connector (Fig. 2).

6.

Plug the smaller end of the power lead into the left hand side of the power unit, and the other end into mains outlet in wall. Ensure that the mains lead and tubing cannot become trapped in the bed frame.

7.

Switch the power on at the outlet, and at the side of power unit adjacent to the power lead entry.

8.

The system will display STARTING, then INITIALISING whilst the mattress inflates (this will take between 15 - 20 minutes).

Note: It is important that during the INITIALISING phase the mattress connector is not disconnected from the power unit. If this is done, the power unit must be switched off, MUTE button pressed when the sounder is heard, the mattress connector re-engaged, and the power unit restarted. If UNCALIBRATED is displayed when switched on, the system will continue to operate but should be recalibrated as soon as possible. 9.

When a bottom sheet is added to the mattress, ensure that it is left loose to allow the mattress surface to conform with the patient's body as much as possible.

10. Allow the mattress to inflate before positioning the patient on the mattress. 11. Once inflated the system will automatically default to ACTIVE mode. CONTINUOUS LOW PRESSURE therapy can be selected via the THERAPY MODE button (please see THERAPY MODE on page 7). The comfort setting can be adjusted using the up and down arrow buttons (see COMFORT CONTROL on page 7). NB. The power unit will automatically lock 2 minutes after last button operation when running to prevent inadvertent operation of button functions (except MUTE), as indicated by ‘L’ on the display screen. Press and hold the MUTE/UNLOCK button until power unit beeps if further button operation is needed (i.e. change of therapy mode or comfort setting). 12. Place the carry bag and user manual in a safe place for future use.

INSTALLING CUSHIONS The QUATTRO PLUS, QUATTRO OVERLAY AND PULSAIR CHOICE power units can all be used to operate their respective alternating air pressure cushions. Place the cushion on a chair, ensuring that it is placed the correct way up with the BACK labelling (if applicable) facing the back of the chair. Secure cushion to chair using adjustable straps, where available. ®

®

®

1.

The PULSAIR CHOICE cushion is connected to the PULSAIR CHOICE power unit exactly as described in points 5. to 8. above and will take approx. 30 seconds to inflate.

2.

The B.A.S.E. SEQUENTIAL and B.A.S.E. RECLINER MAT cushions can be used with the QUATTRO PLUS and QUATTRO OVERLAY mattress systems, either operated with the mattress or, using a cushion adaptor, directly with the power unit, as follows:-

®

®

®

®

®

®

a) To use the cushion directly with the power unit, connect the cushion adaptor to the power unit, rotating the adaptor clockwise until the green indicator fills the indicator hole on the power unit connector. Connect the air supply hose from the cushion onto the adaptor, matching up the alignment markings (Fig. 3). Ensure that this has been

Fig. 3

6

correctly clicked into place, otherwise a leak may Fig. 4 occur. Attach the power lead, plug into the mains outlet and switch the power on at the side of power unit adjacent to the power lead entry. Once inflated (approx. 5 minutes) increase the comfort control setting to SEATED using the UP arrow button. NB. If using the power unit from an operating mattress system, first press the MAX. INFLATE button to fully inflate the mattress, then rotate the air supply hose connector anti-clockwise and detach from the power unit to seal the air within the mattress to leave it fully inflated. To reconnect the mattress to the power unit after using the cushion, switch off the power unit and disconnect the cushion adaptor. Re-connect the mattress air supply tubing to the power unit, and switch on the power unit (operation will automatically default to Active mode). b) To use the cushion whilst the mattress is operating, simply attach the air supply hose from the cushion to the connection port on the side of the head end of the mattress by matching up the alignment markings and pushing together the CPC connectors until they click into place (Fig. 4), increasing the comfort control setting to SEATED. The mattress and cushion will operate simultaneously, allowing the simple transfer of the patient between the bed and chair. NB. When the patient is in bed, return the comfort setting to the mattress settings of SOFT, MEDIUM or FIRM. It should be noted that the use of an alternating air pressure cushion will increase the patient’s seated height by approximately 5cm, and care should be taken to ensure the patient’s comfort and security regarding height of foot and arm rests.

OPERATION BUTTONS The operation buttons on the face of the power unit provide the following functions. THERAPY MODE Pressing the THERAPY MODE button will toggle between ACTIVE (1 in 4 alternating air pressure cycle) and CONTINUOUS LOW PRESSURE therapy modes. The selected therapy mode is shown on the display screen. The default mode is ACTIVE therapy. To switch to CONTINUOUS LOW PRESSURE mode, press THERAPY MODE button for 2 seconds until an audible tone is heard. The system will then display 'PLEASE WAIT' and requires approximately 2 minutes to initialise. COMFORT CONTROL Air pressure is regulated within each of the cells throughout the cycle so that support, posture and therapy are constantly maintained at optimum levels, in response to patient weight, movement and position. Equalisation of cell pressure automatically takes place at each stage of the 1-in-4 cycle, again to ensure precise pressure 7

and therapy is provided. The automatic default comfort setting is MEDIUM (with the exception of the QUATTRO ACUTE PAEDIATRIC mattress, which defaults to SOFT). However, if the patient prefers a firmer or softer mattress, increase or decrease the comfort control setting accordingly using the UP and DOWN arrow buttons (SOFT/MEDIUM/FIRM). The comfort setting is shown on the display screen. Check periodically to ensure patient support and comfort. ®

DATA Pressing the DATA button at any time switches the display into DATA mode. Use the up and down arrow buttons to scroll through the product data and user information set. Pressing the DATA button again returns the display to the previous mode. NB. Used for accessing information only, does not affect mode of operation. MUTE/UNLOCK Press to silence the sounder and to clear the message from the display screen. The power unit will automatically lock 2 minutes after the last button operation when running to prevent the inadvertent operation of button functions (except MUTE), as indicated by 'L' on the display screen. Press and hold the MUTE/UNLOCK button until the power unit beeps if further button operation is needed (i.e. comfort setting). The power unit will lock again 2 minutes after the last button operation. NB. After power failure/switching the power off, pressing MUTE cancels the system's previous settings. When power returns the default setting of ACTIVE mode, comfort setting 3 is invoked. (Note that previous settings are automatically cancelled if the duration between switch off and switch on is greater than 12 seconds. If power returns before a period of 12 seconds has passed and the MUTE button has not been pressed, the system will return to the previous mode of operation.) MAX. INFLATE Necessary for some nursing procedures, the MAX INFLATE mode inflates the mattress to maximum static pressure for a period of 15 minutes. After pressing the MAX INFLATE button to inflate mattress, the system displays 'PLEASE WAIT' followed by 'READY' and a 5 second audible tone when maximum pressure is achieved and 'MAX INFLATE' is shown on the display screen. After 15 minutes the system automatically returns to the Active mode of operation.

CPR FACILITY (Fig. 5) The CPR device is situated at the head end on the right hand side of the mattress (viewed from foot end), as indicated by arrows on the mattress tag. For rapid deflation rotate the dial of the CPR device anti-clockwise to ‘click’ into the open position . If re-inflating the mattress, make sure the dial of the CPR device is rotated clockwise until it ‘clicks’ into the closed position .

Fig. 5

PATIENT TRANSPORT FACILITY (Fig. 6) Press MAX. INFLATE button (if applicable) to fully inflate the mattress. When maximum pressure is achieved, detach the mattress air supply hose from the power unit by rotating the mattress hose connector anticlockwise until the black lines align, and pull the mattress hose connector away. The mattress will remain inflated, so supporting the patient.

Fig. 6

All alternating air pressure mattresses can be used on profiling bed frames, slatted frames, in-filled frames and divans. Back rests or pillows for support should be placed beneath the mattress to allow uninterrupted body contact with the mattress surface. Place the bottom sheet loosely on the mattress to allow the mattress surface greater contact with the patient’s body. Avoid using fitted sheets. The use of incontinence sheets / excessive bedding beneath the patient may reduce the pressure relieving effect of the mattress. To remove air from the mattress when dismantling the system, use the CPR facility as described above. Care should be taken when raising and lowering bed safety side rails in order to avoid possible interference with the CPR and cushion connection port where fitted. A gap of 2.5cm on either side of the mattress should not be exceeded when side rails are deployed.

Care and Maintenance COVER Always keep the mattress/cushion cover as clean as is practicable. The material is waterproof and vapour permeable. l Inspect top cover for signs of damage or wear which could result in the contamination of the interior, e.g. tears, holes, damage to seams or zips, underside staining, etc. The frequency of these checks should be at each decontamination process, i.e. between patients or patient occupancy (or weekly for longer term patients). l Care should be taken to avoid puncturing cover with objects such as needles, scalpels, pat slides, acrylic nails, etc. l The cover may be removed and cleaned in accordance with The Revised Healthcare Cleaning Manual June 2009 subject to the following action: Following the use of a detergent and or disinfectant solution the mattress cover should be rinsed with clean water using a clean cloth and allowed to dry. l Frequent or prolonged exposure to high concentrations of aggressive disinfectant solutions will reduce the useful life of the mattress/cushion cover. l Where high concentration disinfectants e.g. > 10,000ppm chlorine releasing agent (e.g. Haztab or bleach) or combined cleaning/chlorine releasing agent (e.g. Chlorcleam, Actichlor) and detergent solutions are used to remove blood or other body fluids, mattresses/cushions should be thoroughly rinsed with clean water to remove any residues. This will help prevent any possible long term compatibility issues associated with disinfectant residues.* l Alternatively disinfection may be achieved by laundering at temperatures not exceeding 65 C for 10 minutes or 73 C for 3 minutes which may include a chlorine rinse. l Do not use abrasive cleaners, phenol disinfectants, solvents or alcohol-based cleansers, e.g. Dettol, Phenicol, Hibiscrub, Clearsol, Stericol, Hycoline, as these will destroy the cover materials. l Do not iron. l Ensure that the mattress/cushion is thoroughly dried before remaking the bed or placing in storage. 0

EMI/EMC Statement and Manufacturer’s Declaration This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of EN 60601-1-2 2001. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in both a medical and residential environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not used in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception or other equipment, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures: l Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. l Increase the separation between the equipment. l Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver or equipment was connected. The equipment having been tested to operate within the limits of electromagnetic compatibility. (Immunity to interference from nearby sources radiating radio frequency energy). Sources exceeding these limits may give rise to operation faults. Where possible the system will sense the interference and if it is of short duration transparently take countermeasures whilst operating near normally, or failing this will issue a warning and take measures for the continued safely of the user. Further increased levels of energy may cause the system to stop operating, continuously generate random faults or continuous resets. Try to ascertain the source of the interference by turning nearby or suspect equipment off, and see if the interference effects stop. In any such event the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures: l Have the interfering equipment repaired or replaced. l Reorient or relocate the interfering equipment. l Increase the separation between the equipment and the possible source of the interference. l Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the interfering equipment was connected. Information regarding Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) according to IEC60601-1-2:2001, clause 6.8 With the increased number of electronic devices such as PC’s and mobile telephones, medical devices in use may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference from other devices. The EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility) standard IEC60601-1-2 defines the levels of immunity to these electromagnetic interferences. From the other hand, medical devices must not interfere with other devices. IEC60601-12 also defines the maximum levels of emissions for these medical devices. The QUATTRO® conforms to this IEC60601-1-2 standard for immunity and emission. Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed: l l l l

The QUATTRO® needs to be installed and put into service according to the EMC information below. The QUATTRO® is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified in the tables below. The user of the QUATTRO® should assure that it is used in such environment. In general, although the QUATTRO® complies too the EMC standards, it can be affected by portable and mobile RF communications equipment (such as mobile telephones). The QUATTRO® should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. In case adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the QUATTRO® should be observed to verify normal operation.

Electromagnetic Environment - Guidance Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the QUATTRO® including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation appropriate to the frequency of the transmitter. Recommend separation distance d = 1.2 √P d = 1.2 √P 80 MHz to 800 MHz d = 2.3 √P 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in meters (m). Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters as determined by an electromagnetic site survey,a should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range.b Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

Note1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies. Note2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects, and people. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/ cordless) telephones and land mobile radio, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the QUATTRO® is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the QUATTRO® should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the QUATTRO®. b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m. a

Recommended Separation Distance Between Portable and Mobile RF Communications Equipment and the QUATTRO® The QUATTRO® is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The user of the QUATTRO® can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the QUATTRO® as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment. Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter in Meters (m) 150 kHz to 80 MHz d = 1.2 √P 80 MHz to 800 MHz d = 1.2 √P 800 MHz to 2.5GHz d = 2.3 √P 0.01 0.01 0.01 0.01 0.12 0.12 0.12 0.12 0.12 0.12 0.12 0.12 0.23 0.23 0.23 0.23 0.1 0.1 0.1 0.1 For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in Meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in Watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
