Screen dividers designed to separate the bed or examination table providing the patient and the clinical staff privacy and facilitating the procedure. These screens are typically opaque or translucid stand-alone structures that include appropriate means to hold them; some screen dividers may include brackets for attachment to the ceiling and/or walls. Bedside screen dividers are mainly used to provide a permanent (e.g., in semi-private patient rooms) or temporary barrier between the patient bed or table (e.g., multibed patient rooms, catheterization laboratories).
