Intended Use
The AvantGuard® line of hospital beds includes acute care beds
(Trendelenburg with battery backup is a mandatory requirement for
acute care beds) and general-purpose variable height hospital beds for
general care, for use in post-operative care, and general medicine wards.
They are designed with the needs of the whole medical team in mind
and facilitate the use of monitoring equipment and the transfer of
patients to examination wards.
Before placing the patient on the bed
Carry out individual risk assessments including but not limited to:
• Caught Hazard
• Potential falls from the bed
• Confused patients
• Patients with learning difficulties
• Small children
• Persons without the mental capacity to recognize unsafe actions
• Unauthorized persons
All persons authorized to use the bed’s functions must be capable of
doing so in a safe and controlled manner. In case of doubt, the bed’s
functions must be locked.
Bed model and country of use
Certain bed features may be available or not, depending on the
destination country. These features are identified with an asterisk (*).
To identify your bed model and serial number (HRP000000), refer to the
identification label (See “Overview” page 2-8). Your bed LI158Bx is
composed of a chassis/bed frame identified CS158Bx and two
endboards.
