FAQ

• Can these pads prevent a patient from exiting the bed?
  The pads will not prevent a determined patient from exiting the bed but are designed to provide some level of protection.

• Can these pads be used on any hospital bed?
  Not all hospital beds allow for full articulation when these pads are applied. It is recommended to slowly articulate the head of the bed to ensure compatibility.

INTRODUCTION

Posey Seizure Pads are form fi tted to fi t snugly over the existing bed side rails with a 1″ (3 cm) layer of medium density foam to help safeguard against accidental patient injury. The outer shell is constructed from lightweight sheer nylon denier to help prevent patient “rub” burns and allows unobstructed movement of the side rails to the lowered position. The nylon cover is backed with a urethane waterproof coating that easily wipes clean with liquid disinfectant. Open windows in upper section allow for easy access to controls on most bed models.

Monitoring

Posey Seizure Side Rail Pads will not prevent a determined patient from exiting the bed, going over or attempting to go between or through side rail gaps. Not all hospital beds allow for full articulation when this product is applied. Slowly articulate the head of the bed to ensure compatibility. Always follow your facility’s policies and procedures for patient assessment, monitoring and rehabilitation.

Application Instructions

1. Inspect product set prior to use. Do not use soiled or damaged products.
2. Identify each of the components in the set. Each pad has sewn-in tags, identifying its intended location from the perspective of lying down in the bed (Fig. 1).
3. Place each of the pads onto the proper side rail and shift it into position (Fig. 2).
4. Securely fasten all the hook-and-loop fasteners along the edges of each pad. Some pads may have additional hook-and-loop fasteners in their mid-sections, for those pads please see Fig. 3 and Fig. 4.
5. Lower each of the side rails to check clearances. Note that there may be some resistance as the rails are completely lowered. This should be expected as there are close manu facturing tolerances between the bed and the side rail. The shear nylon covers are chosen to minimize any potential binding.
6. Check for proper fi t. Modifi ed beds may not be compatible with Posey Seizure Side Rail Pads.

Disposal

Properly dispose of the product per facility’s policy for BIOHAZARDOUS materials.
