The Stryker 1015 Big Wheel: a stretcher solution designed for performance, safety and comfort
The Stryker 1015 stretcher embodies the convergence of advanced engineering, medical ergonomics and clinical requirements. Designed to meet the most complex needs of healthcare facilities, this stretcher sets the standard for mobility, durability and comfort for both patients and medical staff.
With an adaptable transport platform and ergonomic design, the Stryker 1015 is specially designed to reduce physical strain on healthcare staff while ensuring optimal patient safety. The centralised Big Wheel system, a true innovation in manoeuvrability, allows even overweight patients to be moved easily without compromising stability or direction. This increased mobility translates into time savings and a significant reduction in the risk of musculoskeletal disorders for users.
The sturdy frame, combined with a comfortable lying surface and precise adjustments (backrest angle, knee bend, Trendelenburg position), allows for quick adaptation to a variety of clinical situations, from emergency to post-operative monitoring. The high load capacity – up to 700 lb (317.5 kg) – and generous platform dimensions ensure safe and comfortable care for all patient profiles.
The adjustable height, ranging from 52.7 cm to 86.4 cm, allows for a smooth transition between different levels of care, while facilitating transfers. The retractable side rails ensure patient safety while providing quick access when needed. The integrated hydraulic system ensures quick, intuitive and quiet adjustments, even under heavy loads.
The Stryker 1015 is also highly configurable to adapt to different hospital environments, whether in emergency rooms, operating theatres, resuscitation units or intensive care units. The available accessories further enhance its versatility and allow for fine customisation according to clinical practices.
The attention to detail in every component, from the ergonomic mattress to the lifting mechanism, demonstrates a commitment to designing a care tool that is as reliable as it is durable. Resistant to intensive use, the stretcher requires little maintenance and offers excellent longevity, contributing to the overall cost-effectiveness of the equipment.
The Stryker 1015 is much more than just a stretcher: it is a complete medical transport solution that combines technical performance, patient comfort and caregiver safety. It is the obvious choice for facilities seeking to optimise the quality of their care while protecting the health of their staff.
