Do Bed Bumpers Work?

A study based on the NPSA’s National Reporting and Learning System (NRLS) estimated 1,250 reports of injuries from striking or trapping limbs in bedrails are made every twelve months from hospitals and mental health units in England and Wales. The Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) have had reports of 21 bedrail related deaths from 2000 – 2006. Bedside bumpers have been specifically designed to reduce the number of injuries and deaths related to bedside railings entrapment. 

Who Could Benefit From All-Round Bed Protectors?

• Healthcare settings with moveable beds or wall-mounted equipment
• Patients with epilepsy
• Those who suffer from excessive bruising (ecchymosis) 
• Patients who suffer from confusion, agitation or delirium
• Anyone who experiences repetitive or involuntary movements
• People with variable levels of consciousness, or those under sedation
• Individuals with burns, open wounds, or weakened immune systems
• Elderly patients vulnerable to falls
• People with high or low body mass (which may change entrapment risks)

Reduces the Risk of Injury During Involuntary Movement

Many patients suffer from involuntary movements or seizures during the night which can cause serious injury or entrapment if they are unsupervised. A cushioned headboard or footboard ensures the hard ends of the bed cannot cause an injury from excessive or repetitive impact. With this in place, your patient or loved one is unlikely to obtain bruising or contact injuries, should they be moving their limbs throughout the night. 

Protect Walls and Equipment from Damage

Hospital and care equipment is often costly and valuable, meaning it is essential to keep products free from damage to ensure their longevity. Hospital beds are moveable by nature with wheels to facilitate this, therefore it is important to safeguard equipment and beds. The quilted padding safeguards expensive or custom hospital beds, as well as walls and wall mounted equipment.

Secure Fastenings for Easy Application

The All-Round Quilted Protection Set features secure and adjustable velcro fastenings for easy application. Situations in healthcare settings can often change suddenly and it's essential that patient access is effortless and fast, free from excessive fastenings. This set ensures that retracting or removing bed rails or undoing the protective cover is a swift procedure to ensure patient safety and to minimise the workload of caregivers.

Closed Corners for Added Protection

This set upholds its promise of 'all round protection', going further than just applying quilted covering to the bed rails and head or footboards. By providing additional coverage to wrap around the corners of the bed, this reduces the risk of accidental damage to the bed, surrounding areas or equipment when in transit. 

Breathe Through Fabric to Avoid Asphyxiation

Patient safety is the number one priority in healthcare settings. Whilst protecting expensive equipment and hospital beds is important, it is essential to prioritise the comfort and security of patients. This set features breathe through material to eliminate the risk of accidental asphyxiation. 

Machine Washable for Easy Sanitation

Regular and thorough sanitation is a requirement for healthcare settings, therefore investing in accessories and additions that facilitate easy maintenance is only one of the ways to reduce unnecessary workload for caregivers. This protective set is machine washable with a durable construction, meaning its quilted and protective qualities will not diminish with washing. 

Technical Specifications

Please Note: The Headboard/Footboard Protectors are specifically designed to fit between the bed rail bumpers and to extend over the top of the headboard and footboard. This helps to ensure a snug fit for optimal protection against accidental falls from the bed.
