Bed Assembly (Bedded Only); Optional In-Bed Scale (Bedded Only); Giraffe Shuttle Accessory (Bedded Only) - GE PANDA Service Manual

1.2.6 Bed Assembly (Bedded Only)

The bed assembly is mounted to the base assembly via a pivot and actuator. This assembly point allows the
bed to pivot relative to the base. The pivot is normally locked, but a release handle allows the operator to
unlock the pivot and adjust the angle of the bed. Once the desired angle is achieved, the handle is released,
and the pivot locks again. There are two versions of the bed assembly. The Giraffe Warmer uses a
65 × 48 × 4 cm mattress with rounded ends, which can be translated side-to-side, and rotated. The
Panda iRes Warmer uses a fixed rectangular mattress measuring 66 × 48 × 2 cm.

1.2.7 Optional In-Bed Scale (Bedded Only)

There is a scale option, located in the bed, which can weigh the patient. The scale uses the graphics display
on the warmer to display its measured weight.

warmer includes a small circuit to isolate the power and communicate with the OEM pulse oximetry board,
so as to pass its parameters to the display without modifying the parameters or alarms. The
communication is performed using a serial data bus. The modules are procured from Masimo or Nellcor.

1.2.9 Giraffe Shuttle Accessory (Bedded Only)

The Giraffe Warmer and Panda iRes Warmer can be used with the Giraffe Shuttle, a mobile power source
that allows for transport of the patient between care areas within the hospital building and provides power
to the warmer. These areas include, but are not limited to, Labor and Delivery, NICU, Radiology, and
Operating Room. The warmer with the Shuttle is not intended for use outside of the hospital building.
