5.0 Safety Precautions
Review the following SAFETY PRECAUTIONS prior to using the Auto SureFloat™ System.
Risk of electric shock. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
•
Disinfect the Auto SureFloat™ system between patient installations. Failure to
disinfect may risk cross-contamination and infection.
•
Check patient at least every 8 hours or once per shift, to assure proper system
operation.
•
Deflate mattress before performing CPR or CPR will be ineffective.
•
Some medical conditions may not respond to treatment of this type. Patient's skin
condition should be inspected regularly. Consult physician if any redness or skin
breakdown occurs.
•
For grounding reliability, plug only into a properly grounded outlet.
•
Make certain all mattress straps are secured to the bed frame to prevent mattress
from sliding and causing patient injury.
•
Raise the bed side rails before initiating treatment to prevent possible injury to
patient.
•
Use minimal layers of sheeting and incontinence pads. Too many layers between
the patient's skin and the support surface will reduce the effectiveness of the system.
•
Do not pull linens tightly over mattress. Tight sheets can cause "hammocking" and
reduce effectiveness of treatment.
•
Medical Electrical Equipment requires special precautions regarding EMC and
should be installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in
the accompanying documents.
•
Portable and RF communications equipment can affect medical electrical equipment.
