FLUIDITY BETWEEN UNITS

Multifunctional Armchair

The high functionality and manoeuvrability of this system make Zero G a high-performance wheelchair for transport and relaxation, ideal for various healthcare services, from small dialysis centres to large hospital units.

Conceived as a product to help in hospital management, specifically in the connection between health units, this is a chair distinguished by its high mobility in any situation without neglecting the patient’s comfort from the wards to treatment areas such as dialysis or surgery units.

Articulated system with gas springs.

THERAPEUTIC PROPERTIES

Zero Gravity Position

Zero G is based on the concept of neutral body posture, achieving the most ergonomic and relaxing posture for the human body. A synchronous articulation of back and seat in a determined proportion and inclination, simulates the conditions of microgravity and the respective absence of atmospheric pressure, maximising musculoskeletal relief.

This positioning technique applied to patients in hospital treatment provides an extraordinary rehabilitation and rest therapy.

Between Zero G Uno and Duo versions, it is possible to choose synchronised or independent back and leg movements, opening up a range of applications depending on the hospital environment where it is inserted.

EFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE

Dialysis Centres

With the possibility of applying practical and removable accessories, the connection alternatives between healthcare units are formed.

Patients can come directly from the wards in the transport wheelchair and, without leaving it, take their place in the haemodialysis unit where the accessories suitable for the treatment can be inserted, such as the pad for blood collection or the intravenous support.

ONE-DAY-GO Procedures

Outpatient Surgery

When there is no need for hospitalisation, Zero G is very versatile. The patient can be transported from the operating theatre to the comfort of the bedroom or recovery box to sleep or rest without leaving the armchair.

To ensure permanent patient mobility, Zero G is equipped with bilateral hooks for suspension of drainage bags or urine up to 1l. Also, to ensure continuous treatment of patients undergoing oxygen therapy, a removable, bilateral oxygen cylinder holder can be applied.

EARLY MOBILITY

Achieving Autonomy

An important factor in reducing the length of hospital stays is the recovery of the patient’s confidence in their motor skills. The comfort and control evident in Zero G can help provide a shorter and more pleasant stay.

The reclining handles of the chair are in an easy-to-reach position for the patient, allowing the patient to adjust the back and leg supports themselves. The headrest can also be adjusted by itself.

In addition, there is the option of an easily removable meal and activity tray, with the possibility of including a support for hanging it when it is not in use.

INFECTION CONTROL

Removable Components

The simple construction and high-quality materials and finishes of Zero G allow for proper cleaning and disinfection.

To help this practice, it includes features such as the easily removable seat or the washable materials. All metal components are epoxy or stainless steel painted, avoiding corrosion and improving sanitation.

ERGONOMICS AND PROTECTION

Fall Prevention

The Zero G’s armrests, besides their function of resting the patient itself, also prevent and avoid the risk of injuries caused by accidental falls, through a high lateral coverage and a profile that accompanies the reclining of the seat and backrest.

SAFE TRANSFER

Zero Gap

Although resistant when locked, the armrests have handles that are easy and quick to operate for the caregiver, but they provide reassurance against improper or accidental use.

When folded down, they hide under the seat of the armchair. This allows the chair to rest against a bed or other medical device with very little space – Zero Gap – providing a quick and safe transfer of the patient.

Independent folding creates a support so that more mobile patients can safely transfer by themselves.

LONG-LASTING QUALITY

Synthetic Leather

The upholstery is covered with high quality synthetic leather with a natural leather look. It is antibacterial, antifungal and impermeable to water, allowing for constant cleaning without impairing long-term resistance. For safety reasons, it has a fire-retardant, fireproof treatment.

It is available in grey synthetic leather as standard and other colours on request. The frame can be chosen in grey or white.

SMOOTH MOVEMENT

SAFE TRANSPORT

Whoever drives Zero G is positively surprised with the high manoeuvrability provided by the comfortable and adjustable carrying handle combined with the illusory lightness and perfect balance of the whole product.

On the other hand, the robustness of the whole system reassures the health professional about the patient’s safety, who can also feel it through the smooth movement, the high lateral coverage of the armrests and the retractable footrest.

Available with Ø100 mm wheels and local brakes on rear wheels or Ø125 mm wheels and central brakes on rear wheels.
