Stryker in Portage, south of Kalamazoo, a global leader in medical technologies, has launched the ProCeed hospital bed, which it says offers simplicity while enhancing care across various regions.
The company reports ProCeed was built to withstand the demands of health care environments, and provide staff with a durable and cleanable hospital bed.
ProCeed helps keep patients and care teams safe with various design elements, including low bed height, which supports patient mobility and reduces the risk of injury from falls.
The fifth wheel, an extra wheel positioned at the core of the bed, reduces start-up push force and offers steering help to reduce the risk of caregiver back injuries.
ProCeed also offers two headboard designs, including one that stays stationary as the bed frame tilts, or a mobile headboard that tilts, raises, and lowers as the frame articulates into different positions.
“As we designed ProCeed, helping keep clinicians and patients safe while allowing for an efficient and easy-to-use platform was key,” says Scott Sagehorn, vice president and general manager of Stryker’s Acute Care business. “Launching a bed that meets the needs of staff and patients in these markets will help deliver consistent and quality care.”
