IN SHOCK PATIENT (POPULAR CONCEPT)
Shock is a state of circulatory collapse. The body goes into shock when there is not enough circulating blood. It can cause multiple organ
failure, leading to life-threatening complications such as heart failure.
1. The first aid to a patient in shock consists of raising his feet to at least 30 centimeters above the floor. This position is called “shock
position”. This helps to keep the blood in vital organs where it is most needed. 2. The MXS 330 – ELEVEX cot makes it possible to place the
patient in the shock position, by activating the telescopic system similar to the movable backrest, which is located under the patient's legs.
Pull the yellow trigger (A) and raise the base to the desired position.
OPERATION
The operation and height level adjustment of the MXS 330 – ELEVEX cot, must be performed by at least 2 rescuers, which may suspend
the weight of the cot / patient, before operating, to avoid accidental fall. 1. The primary and main drive is done through the rear handle (A),
which may be pulled sideways to articulate the pantographic system. There is also the possibility of a secondary drive, through the side
handle (B), which also must be pulled sideways for the articulation.
