How Much Do You Know About ICU Beds

2023-08-30 15:34

Due to the special critical condition of patients in the ICU ward, the nursing work in the ward is complex and arduous.
The requirements for standard ICU beds are also very strict, with the following main functional requirements:


1. Multi-position adjustment: Using safe and reliable medical silent motors, the bed can be fully electrically controlled for overall lifting,
backrest and thigh board adjustment. It can be adjusted to positions such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) position, cardiac chair position,
"FOWLER" position, Trendelenburg position, and reverse Trendelenburg position.

2. Turning assistance: In the ICU ward, there are many patients with deep consciousness disorders who cannot turn over on their own.
Nursing staff need to frequently turn them over, clean them, and prevent pressure ulcers. Without turning assistance,
it usually requires two to three personnel to assist in turning and cleaning a patient, and nursing staff are prone to back injuries.
Modern standard ICU beds can easily facilitate side turning of patients through foot pedal control.


3. Convenient operation: ICU beds can control the movement of the bed from multiple angles. The bed rails on both sides,
the footboard, handheld controller, and foot pedal controls on both sides all have control functions. This allows nursing staff to operate
and control the bed easily according to the convenience of nursing and rescue. In addition, there are functions such as one-key reset,
one-key positioning, and bed exit alarm, which are used to supervise the walking of patients during the transitional rehabilitation period.


4. Accurate weighing function: Critical patients in the ICU ward require a large amount of fluid exchange every day, and the intake
and excretion volumes are crucial. Traditionally, the fluid intake and output are manually recorded, but this can easily overlook the secretion of
sweat or the rapid burning and consumption of body fat. With an accurate weighing function, continuous weight monitoring of patients allows doctors
to conveniently compare the differences between the two sets of data and adjust the treatment plan in a timely manner.
It can improve the data management of quality changes in patient treatment.


5. Back X-ray imaging requirements: X-ray imaging of critical patients can be performed in the ICU ward. The backboard is equipped with an X-ray film cassette slide,
allowing X-ray imaging without moving the patient.


6. Flexible movement and brakes: The ICU ward requires nursing beds to have flexible movement and stable brake fixation, which facilitates rescue and in-hospital transportation.
Central control brakes and medical swivel casters are commonly used.
