Add to wishlist sprint 100

The sprint 100 hydraulic system makes it easy to change the stretcher’s configuration from normal bed to CardiacChair position, helping patients with various conditions such as heart disease. It also helps reduce the risk of aspiration. With four-section mattress platform it utilizes hydraulics to easily adjust the bed from flat to chair position.  Also many treatments are easier with the patient in a sitting position. It is especially useful for administering medication, either for inhalation or expectoration. 

The sprint 100 brakes are easily accessible from the head and foot ends of the stretcher, eliminating the need to move to the sides of the bed when using the brake. The brakes are both applied and released by pushing the pedal down instead of pulling it up, which reduces the risk of occupational back pain affecting hospital staff.

The retractable 5th castor lets the sprint 100 ride smoothly over uneven surfaces and obstacles, such as lift entrances and thresholds. This is crucially important not only for patient comfort but for safety as well, reducing the risk of spinal injuries for example. To make the sprint 100 fully compatible with various medical equipment such as C-arms and X-ray devices, the 5th castor can be easily deployed and retracted.

Pushing a stretcher using the IV poles is common, but the sprint 100 is the world’s first stretcher designed to make it safe and practical. While standard IV poles often break when used for pushing, the telescopic poles on the sprint 100 feature a special robust design that reduces maintenance costs, makes work easier for staff, and allows the stretcher to be pushed at a low height for increased patient safety.
