About this equipment
The full-specification critical care bed, for purchase. All five functions run off a lockable handset, the platform is radiolucent so a bedside X-ray does not require moving the patient, and the mechanical CPR release drops the backrest flat in one pull. Facilities buy this bed; families generally rent the equivalent unless the need is measured in years. If you are setting up a permanent high-dependency room, this is the bed that setup is built around.
Indications — when this is used
- Permanent high-dependency or critical care rooms
- Long-term ventilated or unconscious patients
- Facilities requiring bedside imaging without patient transfer
Who it is for
- Hospitals, nursing homes and critical care facilities
- Families establishing long-term home critical care

Also know about
The things that are easy to find out too late.
Sale only
For a temporary need, the rental fleet carries an equivalent ICU bed. Ask us before buying if the requirement might be measured in months.
Lift access is a hard requirement
At 135 kg this bed does not go up stairs above the third floor. We will decline rather than attempt it.
Tilt is clinician-directed
Trendelenburg is contraindicated in raised intracranial pressure and raises aspiration risk. Agree the available positions with the treating doctor.
Test the CPR release at handover
It is the one control that must work first time under pressure, and the one most likely to be obstructed by bedding or a mattress that does not fit.
Safety & clinical information
Device information, not medical advice. Suitability for a particular patient is a decision for the treating clinician.
How it is installed and used
Delivered in sections and assembled in the room where it will be used. The technician levels the frame, fits the mattress and side rails, connects the controls, and demonstrates every position until the carer has operated each one unaided. Castors are locked once the bed is placed, leaving carer access on both sides.
Before delivery
Confirm the patient's weight is within the frame's safe working load, that the doorway clears 800 mm, and that the room allows roughly 2.6 m × 1.8 m with access on both sides. Patients immobile for more than 16 hours a day should have an alternating-pressure mattress arranged at the same time.
Ongoing care and servicing
Repositioning every two hours remains a nursing requirement — the bed assists it, it does not replace it. Side rails must be raised whenever the patient is unattended. Rental units are stripped, detergent-washed, disinfected and inspected against the manufacturer's reprocessing instructions between patients.
When not to use it
- Body weight above the rated safe working load
- Every frame states a maximum load including the mattress. Above it, a bariatric bed is required — the frame is not simply 'a bit overloaded'.
- Patients at risk of entrapment between rails
- Side rails carry a recognised entrapment risk for agitated or very slight patients. The rail gap must be assessed by the treating clinician before rails are used continuously.
- Trendelenburg in raised intracranial pressure
- Head-down tilt is contraindicated where intracranial pressure is raised, and must be directed by the treating clinician.
- No lift access above the third floor
- At 135 kg the bed cannot be carried safely up more than three floors without a service lift.
Possible side effects
- Pressure ulcers
- A standard foam mattress does not prevent pressure sores in a continuously bedbound patient. Add an alternating-pressure mattress and keep to a turning schedule.
- Limb or digit pinch injury
- Fingers and IV lines can be caught in the backrest and knee-rest mechanism while it is moving. Check clearance before operating the control.
Serious risks
Life-threatening, permanently damaging, or requiring hospitalisation.
- Fall from bed
- Falls from a raised bed with the rails lowered can cause fracture or head injury and frequently require hospitalisation.
- Patient entrapment in side rails
- Entrapment of the head, neck or chest between rail bars, or between rail and mattress, can cause asphyxiation.
- Delayed resuscitation from CPR release failure
- An obstructed or untested CPR release prevents the backrest dropping flat quickly enough for effective chest compressions.
- Aspiration in head-down tilt
- Prolonged or unsupervised Trendelenburg positioning can cause aspiration of gastric contents.
