Shower trolley with central braking

German manufacturer Hanse- Medizintechnik has developed a new patient shower trolley with a central braking system and slide mat.

Named the “Anna”, the unit has a remote control height adjustment system and a narrow transfer surface, making the transfer of patients quick and easy, as well as reducing the likelihood of back strain for operators.

The company promises: “Quick and easy showering combined with the comfort of bathing.” The sturdy hard shell construction allows for a water level of up to 15 cm, which helps to keep the patient warm throughout the process.

The side walls can be folded down, making the trolley narrower for improved manoeuverability, as well as saving on space when stored. The central braking system and large, smooth-running castors provide a high level of patient comfort, especially as the trolley can be tilted for either headup or head-down positioning.
