Proactive Medical Protekt® Chair/Bed Alarm

Protekt® Chair/Bed Alarm

The Protekt Chair/Bed Alarm is a patient monitor alarm that activates when a patient lifts off a pressure pad. It fits care settings that need a simple alerting option for chair or bed exit monitoring, and it helps reduce false alarms by silencing automatically when pressure is reapplied or when the belt is re-attached. This unit works with most manufacturers' alarm sensor pads and with buckle and velcro seatbelt sensor attachments, and it includes a 9V battery.
