XieHe presents the YXH-5E Stair Stretcher, a purpose-built stair stretcher engineered to redefine emergency patient movement in multi-level environments. The YXH-5E stair stretcher is designed to meet the complex demands of emergency responders, facilities managers, and safety teams who require reliable, efficient, and safe evacuation solutions. As a leading evacuation stretcher, the YXH-5E stair stretcher integrates advanced materials, user-centric features, and proven mechanical systems to provide a comprehensive emergency rescue equipment solution for hospitals, commercial buildings, schools, and public venues.
Product overview and intended applications
The YXH-5E stair stretcher is an evacuation stretcher intended for controlled patient descent on stairways where traditional wheeled stretchers cannot operate. The YXH-5E stair stretcher addresses scenarios including fire evacuation, power-loss patient transport, emergency rescue operations, and rapid egress from multi-story facilities. As emergency rescue equipment, the YXH-5E stair stretcher is versatile for use by fire departments, emergency medical services, hospital evacuation teams, and workplace emergency planners
Key features and technical advantages
The YXH-5E stair stretcher incorporates a suite of features designed to optimize safety, speed, and ease-of-use. Core technical advantages of the YXH-5E stair stretcher include:
- Robust load-bearing capacity: The YXH-5E stair stretcher supports a broad patient weight range, providing secure evacuation for bariatric and standard patients alike. The structural frame is engineered for high strength-to-weight ratio using advanced alloys and reinforced composite elements to maintain durability without excessive weight.
- Compact, ergonomic design: The YXH-5E stair stretcher is compact when deployed and stores efficiently when not in use. Its ergonomic handles and balanced weight distribution reduce caregiver fatigue during prolonged evacuation scenarios. The YXH-5E stair stretcher’s streamlined profile eases maneuvering in narrow stairwells and around landings.
- Controlled descent mechanism: A defining attribute of the YXH-5E stair stretcher is its controlled descent system that provides smooth, predictable movement down stairways. This mechanism minimizes impact forces, reduces risk of secondary injury, and gives rescuers precise control. As evacuation stretcher equipment, the descent system of the YXH-5E stair stretcher integrates adjustable braking and dwell features to match stair geometry and patient condition.
- Multi-point patient security: Patient stabilization is critical during stair transport. The YXH-5E stair stretcher includes an integrated harness system with quick-release clasps, head immobilization supports, and lateral containment straps to maintain patient alignment. These measures ensure the evacuation stretcher secures patients during movement over uneven steps and turns.
Innovation and design thinking
The development of the YXH-5E stair stretcher reflects a user-centered approach and iterative testing to deliver meaningful innovation. The YXH-5E stair stretcher prioritizes rescue team ergonomics and patient comfort, with cushioning materials and shock-absorbing interfaces that mitigate vibrations during descent. Innovations in the YXH-5E stair stretcher include optimized center-of-gravity positioning to facilitate single-rescuer use in light-load scenarios, and a step-adaptive track system that conforms to a variety of stair riser heights.
Safety standards and certifications
XieHe engineers the YXH-5E stair stretcher to comply with applicable safety standards and recommended practices for emergency rescue equipment. The YXH-5E stair stretcher undergoes rigorous load testing, environmental exposure checks, and repeated-cycle descent trials to validate durability and reliability. These validations reinforce the YXH-5E stair stretcher’s readiness for real-world emergency scenarios and support procurement by institutions seeking compliant evacuation stretcher solutions.
Why choose XieHe YXH-5E stair stretcher
Choosing the XieHe YXH-5E stair stretcher means selecting a proven evacuation stretcher that balances technical innovation, field practicality, and patient safety. The YXH-5E stair stretcher is more than a product; it is an integrated emergency rescue equipment solution that supports faster evacuations, reduces rescuer strain, and improves patient outcomes. With the YXH-5E stair stretcher, facilities gain a dependable tool to meet regulatory requirements and strengthen emergency response capabilities.
The Xiehe Medical YXH-5E is an evacuation chair manufactured from high-strength aluminum alloy, specifically designed for emergency patient evacuation down stairways. With dimensions of 92×52×105 cm, a folded size of 114×52×26 cm, and a maximum safe working load of up to 159 kg, the YXH-5E offers a reliable solution for emergency evacuation scenarios. The seating area is made of durable PVC material—waterproof, stain-resistant, and easy to clean and disinfect. The core advantage of the YXH-5E lies in its single-operator evacuation capability—through optimized ergonomic design and balanced center-of-gravity engineering, one operator can safely and smoothly guide the evacuation chair down stairs without additional assistance. Available in Yellow/Black color options, it is suitable for emergency evacuation scenarios in nursing homes, hospitals, schools, office buildings, and public facilities.

Construction & Materials
The YXH-5E frame is constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy tubing, offering excellent bending resistance and impact resistance while maintaining lightweight performance. The aluminum surface undergoes corrosion-resistant anodizing treatment, providing rust resistance and easy cleaning—suitable for use and storage under various environmental conditions.
The seating area is made of durable PVC material, offering excellent waterproofing, stain resistance, and easy cleaning. It withstands repeated cleaning with various disinfectants, meeting healthcare hygiene standards. The smooth, non-porous surface does not absorb contaminants, enabling quick cleaning and disinfection.
The evacuation chair features a folding design. When folded, it measures 114×52×26 cm, making it easy to store on wall-mounted brackets, storage cabinets, and emergency equipment cases—saving space and facilitating quick access.
Single-Operator Evacuation Design
Single-Operator Patient Evacuation Down Stairs
The YXH-5E is specifically optimized for single-operator evacuation scenarios. During stair descent, the operator guides the evacuation chair down step by step using the handles—without requiring additional assistance to complete the entire evacuation process. This feature holds critical value in the following scenarios:
- Nursing home facilities with limited night-shift staffing
- High-rise building emergencies (e.g., fire) before rescue teams arrive
- Elevator outages requiring urgent patient transfer
Balanced Center of Gravity & Safety Control
The evacuation chair's running gear and center-of-gravity distribution are precisely engineered to automatically adapt to stair angles during descent, ensuring the patient remains in a safe and stable position. The operator only needs to control the descent speed and direction—without bearing the patient's full weight—significantly reducing operational risk.
Ergonomic Handles
The handle positions and angles are optimized to maintain natural gripping postures during stair descent, reducing wrist and lower back strain on the operator.
Applications
Elderly Care Facility Emergency Evacuation: Suitable for evacuation of elderly patients with limited mobility down stairs during fires, earthquakes, and other emergencies in nursing homes and care facilities—single-operator operation reduces physical burden and safety risks during evacuation.
Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities: Suitable for emergency patient evacuation from upper-floor wards via stairways—single-operator operation requires no additional emergency personnel.
Schools & Educational Institutions: Suitable for evacuation of injured students or individuals with limited mobility down stairs during campus emergencies.
