height-adjustable transport tables.

Patient transport trolleys can have a fixed height or allow height adjustment by means of a manual or hydraulic mechanism. The easiest to use are tables for transporting patients with hydraulic regulation, although such models will also be the most expensive.

To prevent patients from accidentally slipping, transport beds must be equipped with foldable side rails and headboards. In addition, they should have a directional wheel that will make it easier to maneuver them. A lock is also necessary to prevent the bed from accidentally moving. If the bed is not equipped with an individual drive lock, check whether it can be fitted with a central braking system, which is purchased separately.
