27、 which specifies design requirements and test methods for road ambulances, which are relevant for checking requirements for such handling equipment. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies minimum requirements for the design and performance of heavy duty stretchers used in road ambulances for the t

28、reatment and transportation of patients. It aims to ensure patient safety and minimize the physical effort required by staff operating the equipment. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its applica

29、tion. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

Risks shall be reduced to an acceptable level by using risk m

35、anagement principles in accordance with EN ISO 14971 in normal and single fault condition. Heavy duty stretchers shall be manually or power operated; guarantee a safe and smooth operation; be free of sharp edges or deformation that could cause damage to persons or other equipment on board; have pati

36、ent restraint-systems available; these restraint-systems shall have quick release systems; immobilize the patient, but at the same time shall permit treatment of the patient; ensure that the lying-sitting part is made of a strong material, which is bacterial resistant, fungal resistant, stain resist

37、ant, putrid resistant, easy to clean, washable and petrol-oil resistant. The heavy duty stretcher shall be designed to transport patients with a weight that exceeds the load capacity of the main stretcher in EN 1865-1. It shall be designed so that during loading and unloading the maximum burden on a

38、ny personnel is half of the total weight of patient and stretcher and for the minimum possible time and in an optimal ergonomic position so that back bending is minimized. 4.2 Dimensions Dimensions shall be measured from the outermost edges. Stretcher part: length: (1 9502050+) mm To accommodate tal

39、l patients it may be possible to increase the length of the stretcher by a further 200 mm. width: (550 20) mm It shall be possible to increase the width of the lying part to a minimum of 750 mm. height: maximum 300 mm from loading holding assembly to unloaded lying part. This height dimension does n

40、ot apply to stretchers with monoblock undercarriages. If a monoblock is not available, the stretcher shall be constructed such that it is detachable from the undercarriage. Where a stretcher support is used the measurement shall be taken from the top surface of the stretcher support to the lying par

41、t of the stretcher. Undercarriage: length and width of the frame of the undercarriage when located in the ambulance shall not exceed length and width of the stretcher part.

(combined weight) NOTE In all cases the mass should be as low as possible. 4.4 Loading capacity The loading capacity shall be a minimum of 250

43、 kg. 4.5 Frame 4.5.1 General The frame shall be in sturdy lightweight non twisting construction enabling use of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. All corners of the frame shall be radiused for greater safety. It shall be possible to lock and secure the stretcher against lateral, longitudinal, vertical

44、and oblique movements. All mechanisms shall be constructed to prevent damage to the user and the patient. 4.5.2 Stretcher parts a) If side rails are mounted, they shall have a minimum length of 500 mm and a height between 150 mm and 200 mm measured from the top of the stretcher frame to the top of t

45、he side rail. b) If longitudinal handles are incorporated they shall be fitted to the ends of the longitudinal frame such that they lock and do not twist when they are stowed or in use. They shall be designed to minimise the risk of injuries to the hands and wrists when being operated or the stretch

46、er is carried at angles. It shall allow the fixation and use of a carrying harness. c) The stretcher shall have either a water and scratch resistant paint finish or be manufactured of corrosion resistant material. Both versions shall be unaffected by disinfectants. d) If intended to be used without

47、undercarriage there shall be 4 wheels with a minimum diameter of 100 mm suitably placed to ensure stability. e) If intended to be used with undercarriage the stretcher shall be able to be fixed to the undercarriage without using supplementary means. A safe handling and lowering of the undercarriage

48、shall be ensured. f) The fixed stretcher shall be easy to release from the stretcher fastener or the undercarriage. NOTE There should be a facility to attach a support for infusion. 4.5.3 Undercarriage a) The undercarriage shall be fitted with 4 wheels with a diameter of at least 100 mm. At the foot end there shall be a minimum of two wheels that swivel 360 degrees and at least two wheels shall be fitted with a brake. b) The undercarriage shall be designed for loading and unloading at a maximu
