Absolutely! Here's a comprehensive breakdown for the Hospital Bed 3 Cranks:
Product Name: Hospital Bed – 3 Cranks
✅ Product Description:
A 3-crank hospital bed is a manual, adjustable medical bed designed to provide comfort, support, and convenience for patients and caregivers in both hospital and home care settings. The bed is operated using three separate manual cranks, typically located at the foot of the bed, which control:
-
Backrest adjustment – raises or lowers the upper body.
-
Knee rest adjustment – raises or lowers the legs at the knees.
-
Height adjustment – raises or lowers the entire bed frame to suit nursing needs or patient transfers.
This type of bed is sturdy, cost-effective, and suitable for long-term patient care. It is commonly equipped with side rails, IV pole provision, casters with brakes, and a metal or ABS head/foot board.
📌 Indications (Uses):
-
Post-operative care – allows positioning to promote circulation and comfort.
-
Long-term patient care – for individuals who are bedridden due to chronic illness or injury.
-
Elderly care – helps with ease of transfers and reduces caregiver strain.
-
Rehabilitation – supports different positions for patient therapy or recovery.
-
Home care or hospital use – suitable for use in medical facilities or home settings requiring mobility support.
💊 Dosages:
Not applicable for a hospital bed.
Instead of dosages, here’s how the crank system typically works:
-
1st crank (upper crank): Adjusts the backrest (0–75°)
-
2nd crank (middle crank): Adjusts the leg section (0–40°)
-
3rd crank (lower crank): Adjusts the bed height (approx. 450mm–750mm)
⚠️ Side Effects (or Patient Risks):
While not a medication, improper use of the hospital bed can pose risks:
-
Pressure ulcers – if patient repositioning is not done regularly.
-
Pinching hazards – during crank adjustments if limbs or objects are in the mechanism's path.
-
Falls – if side rails are not used or improperly locked.
-
Strain injuries – for caregivers if height is not adjusted correctly for procedures.
-
Manual operation fatigue – compared to electric beds, manual cranks can be tiring for frequent use.
🚫 Contraindications:
While hospital beds don't have clinical contraindications, the 3-crank manual bed may not be ideal for:
-
Patients requiring frequent position changes, where electric beds would be more efficient.
-
Patients or facilities with limited caregiver support, as manual adjustment requires physical effort.
-
Highly dependent or bariatric patients, who may need specialized or powered beds for safety and ease.
✅ Summary:
The 3-Crank Hospital Bed is a cost-effective, functional solution for medical and home care environments that require manual adjustment of patient positioning. It supports safe caregiving, improves patient comfort, and is an ideal choice for facilities without access to electric hospital beds. While it requires some manual effort, it's durable, versatile, and well-suited to a wide range of patient needs.
