Applications for the MUBI IRIS Stretcher
The IRIS is built for ocular procedures, the kind of work where a stable, predictable patient platform is part of the procedure itself. It is designed for use in surgical and postoperative units and is suited to hospital environments where the same surface needs to carry a patient through positioning, procedure, and recovery.
Its five-section support platform, one fixed and four mobile, detachable sections, lets staff configure the stretcher to the procedure rather than working around a fixed deck.
The Advantages of the IRIS Eye Surgery Stretcher
- Adjustable Headrest Support: Tilt and height adjust through a knob system.
- Safety Siderails with Single-Hand Release Lock: A simple and effective mechanism that prevents the risk of entrapment.
- Central Locking System: Prevents the wheels from turning, ensuring the patient's safe exit.
- Polymer Telescopic Covers: Protect the hydraulic lifting system from contamination by fluids or dirt.
- Pedal-Assisted Movements: Located at the front and on the right and left sides of the stretcher.
- Foldable Push Handles: On the foot end, easing transportation and providing patient access.
- Retractable Handles: High-strength polymer, allowing the healthcare workforce to adjust the stretcher to different positions.
- Telescopic IV Pole: Fixed and foldable, stainless steel, at the foot end. Maximum load capacity 8 kg (17 lbs).
