MEDICAL TREATMENT CHAIR
INSTRUCTION MANUAL - T600 Series
INTRODUCTION, PURPOSE & GENERAL SAFETY ISSUES The T600 series Medical Treatment Chair has been designed and manufactured with the intention of being used for medical procedures. These include blood collection, renal dialysis, chemotherapy and similar procedures that require comfortable and safe seating. The patient should, at all times, be under the supervision of trained healthcare professionals who have been instructed by the manufacturer in the safe operation of the chair. The chair should never be used in a manner for which it was not intended. The chair is designed so that the occupant will be seated in a typical seated position - hips moved back so that the occupant’s spine is against the backrest, with legs outstretched and supported by the seat and leg rest. The weight of the occupant must not exceed 200 kg for the T600 model and 300 kg for the T600B model. The chair is fitted with castors, which are specifically used to aid cleaning and/or positioning of the chair within the room. The chair should never be used to transport other items. Ensure that the backrest is fully elevated before moving the chair. For models fitted with dual hand controls: the programmable unit is for the use of the staff members only, and the dual recline unit, where fitted, is to be used by the patient. This ensures that the chair is not raised or lowered, or reclined onto an obstruction by the occupant, and that the staff member will ensure the area surrounding the chair is free from obstruction before adjusting it. It is the staff member's responsibility to ensure that prior to operating the chair, the surrounding walls or equipment will not come into contact with nor obstruct the free movement of the chair. It is the staff members' responsibility to ensure the patient is briefed on the safe operation of the chair. If the staff member believes the patient cannot safely operate the chair, the staff member should remove the hand control from the patient’s reach. In an emergency, the chair can be lowered to the Trendelenburg position where CPR may be performed. It is the staff members' responsibility to ensure that the chair is in the correct position for CPR and that the resuscitation method used is in line with hospital policy. In addition, staff should ensure that the chair is adequate for those resuscitation methods, in line with hospital policy. In general, no responsibility or liability can be accepted by the manufacturer for failure to adhere to the guidelines and instructions contained in this manual.

MEDICAL TREATMENT CHAIR
INSTRUCTION MANUAL - T600 Series
OPERATING THE MEDICAL TREATMENT CHAIR 1. Ensure the brakes are locked when the chair is stationary, and positioned to give minimum interference to staff. 2. The seat height may be raised to give maximum comfort whilst in the seated position and should be elevated to minimize bending of staff members. It is normal to cannulate whilst in this position, ensuring the legs are elevated. 3. The gas spring-assisted adjustable height armrests (if fitted) are positioned by loosening the lever and allowing the armrest to comfortably support the patients' arm. When in the desired position, retighten the lever. 4. Fold out tray arm (if fitted) is accessed by opening the upper section outwards 5. The swivel armrest (if fitted) is controlled by loosening the knob under the arm, rotating the arm to the desired position and retightening the knob. 6. Where fitted, the patient has an individual hand control. This allows operation of the seat/footrest and backrest position. Allow the patient to position themselves for maximum comfort, and to regularly alter this position. 7. For safety, only nursing staff can operate the Hi/Lo function and this control should be kept out of reach of the patient at the rear of the chair. 8. In an EMERGENCY, press memory position #1 and the backrest and leg rest will go to their flattest position and the chair will lower until the backrest is supported by the rear support bar. CPR may be performed in this position. NOTE: It is not intended that these instructions override any Hospital instructions for emergency treatment. 9. The armrests may be lowered flat to the seat level to allow side transfer of patient. Raise or lower the seat height to prevent unnecessary bending or lifting by staff members. 10. To allow the patient to rise from the chair, lower the chair and return it to the upright position. (press memory position #2) 11. Memory position #3 will be preset to a position suitable for renal dialysis, blood collection or similar procedures, for ICU and emergency wards, or to a position suitable for side transfer. 12. To reprogram the preset positions see instructions in section 3.3.2 13. Ensure procedural equipment is set up to avoid tubing and cords becoming trapped in the moving parts of the chair (e.g. arm rests). DISCONNECT procedural equipment prior to removing patient from chair. 14. The power cord should always be left in the power supply socket and switched on. The backup batteries will recharge automatically and slow to trickle charge when full.

HAND CONTROLS & PROGRAMMING
Each T600 Medical Treatment Chair comes with two hand controls (The T600B series comes with one hand control only). One nurse-operated hand control and one patient-operated hand control. The patient’s individual hand control allows operation of the seat/footrest and backrest position. Allow the patient to position themselves for maximum comfort, and to regularly alter this position. Only nursing staff can operate the Hi/Lo function and this control should be kept out of reach of the patient at the rear of the chair. For an explanation of symbols on the hand controls, see section 7.2.7.

The following should be used as a guideline only and no claims will be accepted for damage as a result of following these guidelines:
RECOMMENDED CLEANING PROCEDURE FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT CHAIRS The following recommended procedure should only be used if it generally conforms to Infection Control guidelines of the hospital. Step 1
Bodily fluids may carry infectious material. Ensure that protective garments and gloves are worn prior to commencing the cleaning operation.
Step 2
If required, remove the seat and backrest by gently pulling or lifting them off their clips.
Step 3
Remove as much of the spilt liquid as possible using a sponge type material with a dabbing motion.
Step 4
Make up a diluted bleach solution (e.g. Miltons) of 1 part bleach to 30 parts water.
Step 5
First test the solution on a small area of the vinyl. Then, pour onto spill area and wipe with a mopping action.
Step 6
Use a general purpose detergent cleaner with warm water on a cloth for a final clean
