5742 - TIDI Posey® Custom-Fitted Side Rail Seizure Pads - Hill-Rom Beds, Care Assist®/Advanta® 2 Beds

Posey^® Custom-Fitted Size Rail Seizure Pads - Hill-Rom Beds, Care Assist®/Advanta® 2 Beds

The Posey® Custom-Fitted Side Rail Seizure Pads (5742) are specialized safety accessories designed to provide essential impact protection for patients at risk of injury during seizures or periods of agitation. These pads are precision-engineered to fit the specific side rail configurations of Hill-Rom® Care Assist® and Advanta® 2 beds. By encasing the hard surfaces of the bed rails in high-density foam, the 5742 pads create a cushioned environment that significantly reduces the potential for bruising, lacerations, or other trauma during uncontrolled patient movement.

Each pad is manufactured with a durable, medical-grade foam core covered in a fluid-resistant vinyl jacket. This construction ensures that the pads are not only effective at absorbing shock but are also easy to clean and maintain in high-turnover clinical settings. The custom-contoured design allows for secure attachment while maintaining access to bed controls and ensuring that the rails can still be raised or lowered as needed. This product is a critical component for hospitals utilizing Hill-Rom® infrastructure that require specialized seizure-safety protocols for their most vulnerable patients.

Key Features

• Custom Geometric Fit: Specifically tailored to match the unique dimensions and curves of Hill-Rom® Care Assist® and Advanta® 2 bed rails.

• Energy-Absorbing Foam: Features high-density internal padding designed to mitigate the force of impact during seizure activity or thrashing.

• Fluid-Resistant Vinyl: The outer cover is designed to prevent the ingress of liquids and is compatible with standard hospital-grade disinfectants.

• Stable Attachment System: Equipped with reinforced fasteners that keep the pads securely in place even during vigorous patient contact.

• Unobstructed Bed Operation: Designed to allow the side rails to function properly and provide access to integrated patient and caregiver controls.

Ideal Clinical Applications

• Neurological Care Units: Provides a necessary safety barrier for patients with epilepsy or other disorders characterized by seizure activity.

• Intensive Care & Med Surg: Protects patients on Hill-Rom® Care Assist® or Advanta® 2 beds who may become disoriented or agitated.

• Trauma Recovery: Ideal for patients who require a soft, protected environment during recovery from head injuries or neurological procedures.

Contraindications: Do not use if the pads prevent the bed rails from reaching their fully upright and locked position. Do not use as a substitute for appropriate patient observation and clinical monitoring.

Warnings & Precautions: Ensure all straps and fasteners are tightened and positioned away from the patient's reach to minimize entanglement risks. Periodically inspect the pads for wear; replace immediately if the vinyl cover is torn or if the foam core becomes compressed or damaged. Verify that the pads do not obstruct the CPR release or other emergency bed functions.

The addition of pads to side rails can alter the space between the rail and the mattress; always assess the patient for entrapment risks according to facility guidelines. These pads are not intended to serve as a physical restraint. Always ensure the bed is used at its lowest height when the patient is left unattended to further minimize injury risks.
