TotalCare® P1900 by Hill-Rom: An Innovative Bed System for Acute and Intensive Care
The TotalCare® P1900 is a state-of-the-art medical bed system, specifically designed to meet the complex needs of patients in intensive and acute care across various hospital settings. Whether in intensive care units, recovery rooms, or emergency departments, this bed represents a comprehensive solution that optimizes both patient comfort and caregiver efficiency. With its innovative features and modular design, it easily adapts to the most demanding clinical situations, allowing for personalized, high-quality care.
One of the most remarkable aspects of the TotalCare® P1900 is its modular design, which allows for complete customization based on the specific needs of patients. The bed is made up of mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrical systems, enabling it to meet complex care requirements. Caregivers can choose from a wide range of accessories and specialized sleeping surfaces, making this bed extremely flexible and capable of adapting to changes in patient care.
The integration of modular options also ensures a smoother transition between different stages of care. For example, in a critical care context, the TotalCare® P1900 can be easily adapted to provide pressure management with specialized mattresses for preventing bedsores, or integrated weighing systems for accurate monitoring of patient weight fluctuations.
The TotalCare® P1900 also offers critical positioning options such as Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg positions. These positions help manage emergency medical situations or support specific therapies, such as treating patients with hypovolemic shock or hypotension. The Trendelenburg position can be adjusted up to 15°, while an emergency Trendelenburg position can reach up to 20°, offering vital flexibility in urgent care situations.
The TotalCare® P1900 incorporates both electric and manual controls, ensuring great flexibility in bed management. The electric controls, activated by low-voltage switches, are easily accessible to both caregivers and patients, allowing intuitive control of the bed's various functions. These controls manage not only the positioning of the head, knees, and feet but also allow for height adjustment of the bed for more efficient care.
In the event of a power failure, manual hydraulic controls take over, ensuring caregivers can still move the bed or adjust positions safely. This dual operating capability is essential in situations where continuity of care must be maintained, regardless of electricity availability.
The TotalCare® P1900 is equipped with the IntelliDrive® Transport System, which facilitates the safe movement of the bed throughout hospital environments. Thanks to this system, staff can transport patients securely, even in tight spaces, while reducing the physical effort required. The minimum clearance under the bed ranges from 3.18 cm to 12.07 cm, allowing easy handling of lifting equipment and other mobility devices.
The IntelliDrive® system also contributes to patient safety by reducing the risk of tipping or bumps during transport, ensuring smooth and secure transfers between different hospital departments.
The TotalCare® P1900 offers a wide range of accessories to enhance the care experience. From specialized mattresses for pressure management and bedsore prevention to advanced monitoring systems, this bed can be customized to meet the specific needs of each patient. Additionally, extra options such as roller bumpers, a transport shelf, and enhanced casters further increase the bed's functionality and versatility, allowing it to be adapted to different clinical environments.
The TotalCare® P1900 by Hill-Rom represents the cutting edge of technology in acute care beds. Designed to meet the highest demands of modern hospital environments, it combines comfort, safety, and flexibility. With its numerous customization options, secure IntelliDrive® transport system, and versatile controls, the TotalCare® P1900 ensures optimal care for patients while facilitating the work of caregivers.
