This enables examination and even surgery of a patient close to the site of the accident or point of wounding while improving the working position for the medical crew without the need for transferring the patient to other more specialized and heavy surgery tables. Typical Stretcher Stands used presently are fixed and the medical personnel can not easily adjust the angle according to what is optimal for patient and medical crew. Additionally most stretcher stands has very low heights, causing awkward working position for the medical personnel.

The Tiltable Stretcher Stand has a unique construction, enabling medical personnel to position a field stretcher with patient in multiple angles to ease access during surgery, increase effect of auto transfusion, ease breathing for patients with airway or breathing problems or reduce pain for the patient. The TSS is primarily developed to be used in first line medical facilities, typical military field hospitals, assessment units or temporary hospitals, where patients are expected to be received on military field stretchers and where the equipment are to be deployed when needed. To increase stability when used on soft floor/soft ground the TSS should be equipped with the optional quick connect stabilisators. These increases the stability of the TSS without impeding the access to the patient.

The foldable properties of the TSS also enable the TSS to be well suited for easy transport into the field, e.g. for military use in medical evacuation or similar situations. When folded the TSS is easy to handle and may easily be stored in a vehicle or carried by hand.

Assembled within a minute without any tooling and the folding procedure is just as easy.
