It is an autonomous stretcher intended for patients with reduced mobility, particularly quadriplejic and paraplejic, is adjustable in height and transformable between a horizontal position in the manner of a bed for housing the patient lying down and a staggered position in the manner of a chair. It incorporates transport litters (12) destined for supporting the patient, endowed with movement in a transverse direction to the supports (4, 5, 8) in both directions of movement: towards the exterior of the stretcher to remove the patient from the stretcher, for example towards a bed or a wheelchair and towards the interior of the stretcher to accommodate the patient therein. It makes it possible to modify its longitudinal or transverse orientation with respect to the frame and enables the patient to satisfy his or her physiological evacuation needs through the stretcher itself in a sitting position.

A nursing bed includes means for washing a patient who lies on the bed, without removing the patient from the bed. It comprises a plurality of inflatable cushions fixedly mounted on a base, and means for washing the patient comprising a moving brush and trough under the back of the patient. At least part of the cushions have one or more drainage channels made thereon, for allowing washing water and soap to flow down off the bed. The base is generally a flat surface. The base with the cushions mounted thereon form a mattress on the bed. Each cushion has an outlet usable for inflating and deflating the cushion.

A tilt-tip moldable bed system for the care of immobile patients is provided. The bed system may include a moldable mattress having a casing with a bladder defining an inner volume and a top compliant surface over a top surface of the bladder, the compliant surface configured to conform to a shape of a displacing structure. The bladder may be configured to hold a plurality of beads suspended in a fluid medium. The moldable mattress may be molded while inflated and maintain a resilient shape when evacuated. The system may further include a supporting frame for the moldable support structure having a laterally rigid outer rim with at least one attachment point for the moldable mattress, at least one attachment point for a netted sling, and one or more mounting tracks configured to support at least one peripheral attachment.

Provided is a caregiving bed having a variety of usage aspects. A caregiving bed includes a bed main body, and one support platform and another support platform. The bed main body includes a rectangular pad part. Each of the support platforms is provided with an elevator device connected to the pad part to raise and lower the bed main body. Each of the support platforms is provided with a pair of support columns extending upward. A beam member is provided between the support columns of the one support platform and between the support columns of the other support platform. The distance between the pad part and the attachment part decreases when the bed main body is raised by the elevator devices, whereas the distance between the pad part and the attachment part increases when the bed main body is lowered.

A patient support includes a patient support surface, a DVT pump mounted in the patient support, and a port mounted at the patient support in selective fluid communication with the DVT pump. Optionally, the patient support further includes a control system to detect when a DVT device is coupled or in close proximity to the port and/or the type of DVT device. Further, the control system may be configured to control the pump based on the type of DVT device coupled to the port.

A semi-open bathing device (200) is provided, one aspect of which relates to multi-function showering device, comprising a chair assembly, a plurality of first dispensers (220/222), a supply assembly, a temperature regulator, and a waste water management assembly. In the semi-open bathing device (200), the chair assembly comprises a seat (202) with a hole (204) disposed in the center of the seat (202). A backrest (206) and two sidewalls (214) are coupled to the seat (202) respectively thereby forming a front opening for the chair assembly. The backrest (206) provides a support for the bather and the two sidewalls (214) are configured to contain the spillage of water. The plurality of first dispensers (220/222) is positioned onto the sidewalls (214) and/or the backrest (206) for dispensing water and/or air towards the bather. The supply assembly is located at backside of the backrest (206) for connecting to a water supply and an electricity supply.

The present invention discloses a multifunctional critical care system and an operation method thereof. A lifting frame disposed on the bed body, a bed plate and a plurality of lifting bands are disposed at the lifting frame, and a tensioning mechanism is disposed on the lifting frame; The bed plate comprises vertical elevating mechanisms, a transverse telescopic mechanism disposed between the vertical elevating mechanisms; the lifting frame is connected to a tilting mechanism; fastening the lifting bands to lifting bands fastening devices, actuating the vertical elevating power mechanisms; actuating the transverse telescopic power mechanism; actuating the tensioning power mechanism; and actuating the transmission power mechanism. The nursing care mechanism facilitates replacement of bed sheets, ventilating the back, letting the patient laid on their left or right side, cleaning and wiping the body, defecation; and combines the functions of a nursing equipment, a sickbed, and a wheelchair.

Devices, systems, and methods described herein can provide a simulated fluid environment similar to the mother's womb to recreate an ideal or more familiar environment for infants who are born before their ideal due date. In some embodiments, the premature infant amniotic bath incubator can comprise an incubating tank with synthetic or simulated amniotic fluid, a heating element(s), a temperature sensor(s), and/or thermostat(s) for temperature regulation.

A cleansing device for human extremities has a tubular section comprising a water-absorbent material; and a dry cleansing composition impregnated into the tubular section, wherein the tubular section comprises at least one open end, whereby the tubular section is adapted for insertion of a human extremity (limb) into the tubular section through the at least one open end.
