The heated stretcher padding by AK MedTec is a patented system of the product brand “SMART TEXTILES”.
So far, it has only been a matter of course for every driver
In principle, the products of the “SMART TEXTILES” series initially represent an absolutely contemporary comfort tool for every patient. Thanks to this product, the days of randomly tempered stretcher padding are over. This leads to patient’s satisfaction with the rescue service and patient transport increases significantly. The rescue worker no longer has to justify cold stretcher padding to the patient. A standard that every healthy person already takes for granted in a car. All informations can be downloades here.
Advantages of heated stretcher padding
The original goal of heated stretcher padding is the prevention and regulation of hypothermia. It leads to::
coagulation disorder
cardiodepressive arrhythmia
electrolyte imbalance
Change in medication metabolism
infections
A must in emergency rescue and patient transport
For sick people, heated stretcher padding should be standard in emergency rescue and patient transport. Many emergency situations and circumstances in patient transport justify the all the year round use of heated stretcher padding::
traumatised patients with major blood loss
burns
intoxications
induced hypothermia
diseases of the musculoskeletal apparatus
sepsis
old people (reduced heat generation)
paediatric emergencies
Operation of the heated stretcher padding is child’s play.
It was very important to us that we create the handling for the rescue service staff in such a way that everyone finds his or her own personal comfort zone.
