Product features
Advanced mobility options
Stryker Prime offers three advanced mobility opsions - the Zoom Motorised Drive System, Big Wheel Advanced mobility, and Fifth Wheel.
Big Wheel technology allows caregivers to push and steer the stretcher more easily, compared to a manual fifth wheel stretcher.1
Ous Zoom Motorised Drive System helps reduce strenuous pushing and pulling which can result in caregiver injuries.1
Electric lift
Simply step on the pedal to easily raise the litter.
Comfort controls
Patients can control their own comfort instead of calling for assistance and repositioning. Controls are staggered so the patient can access them in any position, and they include a patient lockout. Optional foot-end nursing controls allow caregivers to improve patient comfort with the touch of a button.
Lift assist backrest
The drop seat leverages the patient’s weight to easily raise the head of the stretcher, while cradling the patient to reduce the need for boosting.
Simple and convenient
Four-sided brakes offer convenient access, while a power-washable design makes Prime Series Stretchers easy to clean in a fast-paced healthcare environment.
*Not available on Zoom models
Glideaway siderails
These siderails offer reliable patient security when raised, yet are completely out of the way when down, for zero-gap transfers.
Litter-mounted oxygen bottle holder
Mounted conveniently on the litter, the oxygen bottle’s placement helps reduce awkward bending, reaching and lifting for caregivers.
Recovery chair position
Helps eliminate the need for unnecessary transfers by providing a comfortable position for patients to recover.
Optional scale system
Integrated into the stretcher, the optional scale* provides repeatable weights with the patient in the stretcher. It also helps reduce the need for lateral transfers and independent scale systems.
Chaperone stretcher exit system
For patients who pose a flight or fall risk, this system alerts the nurse when the patient begins to exit the stretcher.5
