Introducing MV3.
Between 1975 and 2018, worldwide obesity nearly tripled.1 As the obese and morbidly obese population has risen, the need for providing bariatric care in a secure and dignified manner has become increasingly important.

Featuring advanced fall prevention technologies such as our exclusive iBed Awareness, bed exit system and low height, MV3 helps keep your patients secure throughout their hospital stay.
Accommodates patients of various sizes3
MV3 can accommodate up to 500 kg safe working load and features an adjustable litter deck that expands to three widths: 91/107/122 cm.
Designed with dignity in mind
With its aesthetically-pleasing design, MV3 looks and feels like the rest of our fleet – helping to preserve the dignity of bariatric patients.
Encourages independence
MV3’s multi-pivotal patient helper is an optional accessory intended to help patients of size reposition themselves in bed and to the edge of the bed.
