Precautions
TheraRest® Classic
Side Rails and Restraints
Use or non-use of restraints, including side rails, can be
critical to patient safety. WARNING: Serious injury or death
can result from the use (potential entrapment) or non-use
(potential patient falls) of side rails or other restraints.
Patient Migration
As with all specialty bed products that are designed to reduce
shear and pressure on the patient’s skin, the risk of gradual
movement and/or sinking into hazardous positions of entrapment
and/or inadvertent bed exit may be increased.
Skeletal Traction
With skeletal traction, use care to guard against risks of
patient migration.
