    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    THE TECHNICIAN FOUND THAT THE SIDE RAIL POWER CONTROL BOARD WAS INOPERABLE DUE TO A BENT PIN WHERE THE COMMUNICATION CABLE PLUGS INTO THE BED. MOST LIKELY CAUSE IS THE COMMUNICATION CABLE NOT BEING DISCONNECTED PROPERLY BEFORE THE BED IS TRANSPORTED. PER THE HILL-ROM MANUAL THE ADVANTA BED REQUIRES AN EFFECTIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM. PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE WILL MINIMIZE DOWNTIME DUE TO EXCESSIVE WEAR. COMMUNICATIONS: INSPECT AND TEST THE COMMUNICATION JUNCTION BOX. TEST THE SIDECOM COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FEATURES FOR PROPER OPERATION. INSPECT THE COMMUNICATION CABLE INCLUDING THE MALE AND FEMALE PINS IN THE PLUG. TEST THE NURSE CALL SUPER CAPACITOR FOR PROPER OPERATION. A SEARCH OF THE HILL-ROM MAINTENANCE RECORDS DID NOT SHOW HILL-ROM PERFORMED ANY PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE ON THIS BED. IT IS UNK IF THE FACILITY PERFORMS PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE ON THEIR BEDS. THE TECHNICIAN REPLACED THE UNIVERSAL TELEVISION JUNCTION BOX POWER CONTROL BOARD ASSEMBLY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. BASED ON THIS INFO, NO FURTHER ACTION IS REQUIRED.
