/Interlude Hospital Beds

The Interlude adjustable hospital beds range as designed and built to help with every aspect of patient care and comfort. It’s well-known that synchronise movement of thorax and leg sections reduces shear, pressure, and the risk of pressure ulcers. This is precisely why we want to make sure that our beds are equipped with built-in auto-regression, so that the bed and the mattress can move as one and exert a minimal amount of friction on the patient’s body. The Interlude range also includes a manual ratchet system or hydraulic gas strut adjustment on the leg section to facilitate a therapeutic position that helps to promote good circulation for long-stay patients. The backrest also has manual CPR quick release levers at both sides when needed in an emergency.

Our Interlude range also features:

• Corner bumpers for protection of walls and furniture
• Handy membrane controls and angle indicators built into siderails
• Trendelenburg and Anti-Trendelenburg tilt and cardiac chair position
• Mattress retainers
• Extendable mattress platforms for taller users
• Central braking system which is activated with a stainless-steel bar-pedal
• Pull-out linen tray (doubles up as a useful table)
• One handle quick release polypropylene head and footboards with quick-locking function
• Advanced nursing control unit at the end of the bed
• IV pole connection points at each corner
• Narrower option available for tighter doorways
• Paediatric models available

Available in Basic and Advanced models, the Interlude Newcare hospital beds utilise a four-bar linkage ‘scissor’ lifting system, which provides stability along the entire length of the bed. The Newcare Basic includes metal concertina siderails and a standard user hand control, making it a trusty, reliable option or any care environment.

However, if you’re looking for something a little more sophisticated, the Advance model incorporates the signature Interlude siderails with the built-in user controls, a more advanced nurse control unit, central braking, integral length adjustment, and an X-ray ready backrest. The Advance also has clip-off mattress platform sections for easy of cleaning.

The TechnoPlus combines the benefits of all the other Interlude models with its column height adjustment to create a stunning, user-friendly hospital bed. IP rated as “dust tight” and protected against powerful jets of water, the TechnoPlus is prepared for any hospital or high dependency care environment.

The rectangular shape of the columns, along with the lower joint, prevents torsion that can damage the columns when the load is unequal. With a mattress platform height adjustment range of 42 – 82cm, the TechnoPlus can facilitate almost any user to the caregiver’s satisfaction. The TechnoPlus hospital bed can be specified to include an advanced built-in weigh scale system with digital display and controls integrated into the siderails. This forward-thinking technology also includes a bed exit alarm to alert nursing staff when a patient is getting up from the TechnoPlus.
