Hillrom ClinActiv Plus
Hillrom · Model ClinActiv Plus
Five individual low-pressure zones, including a dedicated heel zone. Real-time pressure adjustment controlled by the internal I-mmersion sensor adjusts internal cushion pressures instantly according to patient size, shape, weight or position. Flexibility in choosing between continuous or alternating low-pressure therapy modes. Continuous Micro-climate Management limits the effects of temperature and moisture build-up. Dedicated heel zone with ultra-low pressure for optimal protection of the vulnerable heel area, and with enhanced lower-leg support. One touch P-MAX feature provides fast inflation to for easier patient re-positioning and transfer. Patient Egress Alarm informs nursing staff of any undesired patient egress from the bed.
Key tips
- ·Casters and the wheel-lock brake take the most day-to-day wear - check both every PM, not just on complaint.
- ·A cracked weld or loose frame joint is a safety-critical finding - pull the unit from service until it's repaired.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Surface will not inflate / not firm enough
HighSymptoms: Patient bottoms out, low-pressure alarm, surface stays soft.
Root cause: Blower/pump fault, a hose disconnect or kink, or a bladder / air-cell leak.
One zone / cell stays flat
MediumSymptoms: Localised loss of support.
Root cause: Perforated air cell or a failed cell connector.
Low-air-loss / microclimate weak
MediumSymptoms: Patient feels damp, little airflow through the coverlet.
Root cause: Clogged air filter or low blower output.
Cover damage
MediumSymptoms: Tears or cracking in the top cover, fluid ingress.
Root cause: Wear or sharp objects - do not use with a compromised cover.
CPR deflation slow
MediumSymptoms: Surface does not deflate quickly on the CPR control.
Root cause: CPR dump valve or hose fault.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Caster / wheel and brake function check
- ·Frame, weld, and mounting-hardware inspection
- ·Upholstery / surface condition check
- ·Annual full PM
Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Surface will not firm up
- Confirm mains power and that the pump runs.
- Check the supply hose connections and inspect for kinks.
- Listen/feel for pump output.
- Replace the pump if it runs without output.
- Verify the surface holds pressure under a representative load.
Symptom: One zone flat
- Identify the flat cell and isolate it.
- Inflate it alone and check for a leak.
- Replace the perforated cell or connector.
- Reconnect and confirm even inflation.
- Check the cover for a tear.
