A patient support apparatus comprises a litter and a base configured to receive and support the litter when the litter is docked to the base in a docked state. A foot end extension is coupled to a foot end of an intermediate frame of the base, with the foot end extension defining an extended position wherein at least a portion of the foot end extension extends outwardly beyond the foot end of the litter in a direction opposite the head end of the intermediate frame when the litter and base are in the docked state. The foot end extension includes a top surface that is axially aligned with a substantially flat configuration of the litter in the extended position. The foot end extension can be fixedly coupled in the extended position or movably coupled to the intermediate frame and movable between the extended position and a non-extended position.

Patient transport apparatus with defined transport height comprises a support structure and a litter that are interconnected by a lift mechanism. The support structure comprises a base frame and a plurality of articulable support members or legs. The litter comprises a litter frame and a patient support surface with articulating back and leg sections. The lift mechanism may comprise one or more actuators configured to raise and lower the litter between a lowered position and one or more defined raised positions. The Patient transport apparatus may further comprise a controller coupled to one or more sensors and the lift mechanism. The controller may be configured to define a transport height for the litter based, at least in part, on a characteristic detected by the one or more sensors, and to manipulate the lift mechanism to adjust the litter to the defined transport height.

An apparatus for transporting a patient. The apparatus includes a supporting portion to grasp part of the body of a patient. A footboard unit is provided upon which the patient is able to stand when supported by the supporting portion, the footboard unit movable along a floor by movable means. A frame is connected between the footboard unit and the supporting portion. The apparatus is configured so that the footboard unit is able to move in proximity to a bed upon which the patient is lying, whereat the supporting portion can grasp the part of the body of the patient, wherein the frame and the supporting portion are able to support the patient in transitioning from a lying position on the bed to a standing position adjacent the bed as the footboard unit is moved relative to the bed.

According to a patient bed system including a defecation device having an improved piping structure, presented in the present invention, a defecation device is integrally provided in a patient bed, an excrement discharge pipe communicating with a discharge hole at the lower part of a bedpan body is formed by a roundedly inclined piping structure in which excrement flows down by its own weight, an opened end of the excrement discharge pipe can be opened and closed in order to discharge excrement by means of the simple operation of a handle part including an opening and closing member, and an excrement collection polybag in which excrement collection plastic is embedded so as to be discharged in order to facilitate the collection of excrement discharged by a patient is formed so as to be fastened to the excrement discharge pipe, such that, compared with a conventional excrement device, the present invention facilitates cleaning and can increase the convenience of simple operation with one hand.

The invention discloses a care bed including a bed frame and a wheelchair. A head panel, a tail panel, a foldable first lateral connecting portion and a second lateral connecting portion of the bed frame constitute an accommodating space of the bed frame. The bed frame has a notch formed at the folded first lateral connecting portion. The wheelchair is moved by the carriage base into the accommodating space through the notch. The backrest, the first armrest, the second armrest, the leg-rest and the footrest of the wheelchair are regulated into a co-plane with the seat to constitute a mattress. The mattress fits the accommodating space of the bed frame.

An adjustable chair that converts into a bed with a hole in the center of the chair's seating area and ⅔ down when converted into a bed. The purpose of the hole is so that no pressure is applied to the gluteal are when sitting down or when lying down. This is essential after an operation on the gluteal area. The chair is a folding frame with cloth arranged on the frame and is also composed of a tripod. It also has an armrest to allow more comfort to user.

A bed platform assembly, which may be used, for example, within hospitals, nursing homes, senior care or specialized care facilities, or the like, comprises a plurality of different, individually controlled pivotally or otherwise movable sections so as to automatically assist a person to be moved from a supine position to sitting and standing positions such that the person can be assisted by hospital, nursing home, or other facility staff or personnel to participate in, for example, ambulatory or physical therapy sessions as may be needed or required such that the person can heal or recover from an accident, surgery, or the like. Conversely, the bed platform assembly can be operated in a reverse mode so as to automatically assist the person to be moved from standing and sitting positions back to the supine position.

A first transport apparatus includes a deck for supporting a patient thereon and a lift mechanism supporting the deck. The deck is removable from the lift mechanism for use as a second transport apparatus or part of a second transport apparatus. The first transport apparatus further includes an electrically powered device at the first transport apparatus, and a user input device for wireless control of the electrically powered device, which is operable at or near the first transport apparatus and the second transport apparatus.

A system for assisting cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) treatment of a patient includes a defibrillator system including a defibrillator communicatively coupled to a local computing device and configured to receive signals from treatment sensors, a patient support section, and a tilt adjuster coupled to the patient support section. The tilt adjuster is configured to communicatively couple with the defibrillator system, receive a control signal indicative of a target tilt angle from the local computing device, and automatically tilt the patient support section, around a transverse axis, to the target tilt angle in response to the control signal from the local computing device. The system also includes a chest compression device mount disposed on the patient support section and configured to adjustably secure a chest compression device to the patient support section.
