How to Use
Assemble the Adept Hood Assembly onto the Base Board Assembly
The Hood Assembly connects to the Base Board Assembly by sliding it over the Hood Support component until it clicks. Ensure the hood film does not snag in the gap between the Hood Assembly and Hood Support while sliding it into place.
Set up the Base Board
Slide the Base Board between the imaging table and the mattress.
If using a neuro image table, align the bottom edge of the soft hood, with the top edge of the mattress. If using a standard imaging table, ensure the entirety of the base board is under the mattress, with the top of the soft hood, aligned with the top edge of the mattress. If on a curved table, use a foam cushion or similar just under the top of the base board to fill the gap between the curve and the board.
Correct Patient Placement
A hair net may be used to manage the patient’s hair. If the patient has long hair, ensure it is flat against the back.
Transfer the patient onto the imaging table, and align the top of the patient’s head, with the bottom edge of the soft hood.
Evenly Distribute Beads in the Hood
Ensure the beads inside the hood are evenly distributed using a downward sweeping gesture, all around the hood. Pushing down helps to fill the lobes evenly. Fill each lobe with beads, whilst ensuring there is enough left at base of the hood. This ensures optimal immobilisation and patient comfort.
You may choose to place an optional drape on the hood support at this point.
