Description

The Xiehe Medical YXH-1EF is a professional-grade folding stretcher equipped with a four-wheel mobility system and a foldable IV pole, specifically designed for in-hospital patient transfer and cases requiring continuous infusion or monitoring. Constructed with a high-strength aluminum alloy frame and durable waterproof fabric, it offers a stable structure with reliable load-bearing capacity. The four-wheel design ensures smooth and effortless maneuvering on flat surfaces, with a combination of fixed and swivel casters for enhanced control. The foldable IV pole can be rapidly deployed and is compatible with standard infusion equipment, supporting uninterrupted medication administration during transport. The stretcher features a lengthwise folding mechanism for convenient storage and portability. Characterized by ease of operation, stable mobility, and broad applicability, the YXH-1EF is widely suitable for hospital emergency departments, inpatient wards, surgical transport, and elderly care facilities.

Construction & Materials

The YXH-1EF frame is constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy tubing with reinforced structural design, ensuring stability and durability over long-term use. The frame is made from aviation-grade aluminum profiles strengthened through T6 heat treatment for superior fatigue resistance. The stretcher weighs 20.2 kg with a maximum safe working load of up to 159 kg.

The bed surface is made from medical-grade waterproof fabric that balances flexibility and tensile strength. The surface features an anti-slip texture that provides stable friction during transfer, preventing patient sliding. The mattress area is filled with medium-density foam, offering a comfortable lying experience—particularly suitable for critically ill or post-surgical patients requiring extended transport. The bed edges feature rounded corner designs, eliminating sharp edges that could cause accidental injury to patients or operators.

The four-wheel mobility system employs a standard configuration of front fixed casters and rear swivel casters, enabling operators to maintain precise directional control while navigating through crowded hospital corridors and elevators. All four wheels feature medical-grade silent casters with dual-bearing construction, ensuring smooth rotation and low-noise performance over extended use. The casters are made of high-elasticity polyurethane, providing good traction and low rolling resistance on ceramic tiles, PVC flooring, or epoxy surfaces—without leaving scratches or black marks on hospital floors. Each wheel is equipped with an independent brake mechanism, allowing operators to lock the stretcher in any position with a foot tap, ensuring absolute stillness during patient loading/unloading or medical procedures.

Design Features

Foldable IV Pole

The IV pole is one of the core functional features of the YXH-1EF. Constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance, it features two hooks capable of simultaneously holding two infusion bags or one infusion bag plus a drainage bag. The IV pole attaches to the side of the stretcher through a quick-connect mechanism requiring no tools for installation; its height is adjustable to accommodate various infusion bag sizes and pump configurations. When not in use, the IV pole can be quickly folded and stored within the stretcher frame, taking up no additional space and not interfering with folding or daily storage.

Four-Wheel Mobility System

The standard configuration of front fixed casters and rear swivel casters enables operators to maintain precise directional control. All four wheels feature medical-grade silent casters with dual-bearing construction, ensuring smooth rotation and low-noise performance. Each wheel is equipped with an independent brake mechanism, allowing operators to lock the stretcher in any position with a foot tap, ensuring absolute stillness during patient loading/unloading or medical procedures.

Lengthwise Folding Storage

The stretcher features a lengthwise folding mechanism, collapsing to dimensions of 112×23×84 cm for convenient storage in equipment rooms or cabinets when not in use—effectively saving valuable space. The folding mechanism incorporates safety lock catches that automatically lock when deployed, preventing accidental folding during use.

Patient Safety System

Equipped with a reinforced patient restraint system—chest strap, pelvic strap, and ankle straps—providing comprehensive immobilization for unconscious or agitated patients. All straps feature soft cotton padding to prevent skin pressure injuries while maintaining effective patient positioning. Multiple grip points on both sides of the stretcher facilitate multi-person coordinated handling or assist with steering during transport.

Ergonomic Handles

The handles feature ergonomic design for effortless pushing, with push-bar height suitable for operators of different statures. The handle surface is wrapped with non-slip material, providing a stable grip even when operators are wearing gloves.

Applications

Hospital Emergency Departments & Ward Transfers: Suitable for patient transfers between emergency departments and inpatient wards—the four-wheel design ensures smooth maneuvering through crowded corridors.

Surgical Transport: Suitable for patient transfers between operating theaters and recovery rooms—the IV pole supports continuous infusion during and after surgery.

ICU Patient Off-Ward Examinations: Suitable for mobile support when ICU patients require examinations outside the ward—ensuring uninterrupted infusion for critically ill patients during transport.

Elderly Care Facilities: Suitable for daily care and transport of elderly patients requiring continuous infusion in nursing homes.
