TMM5

Mobile Surgical Stretcher-Chair Series


TransMotion Medical's TMM5 Surgical Stretcher-Chairs can be configured with numerous Options (items mounted at the factory) and Accessories (items that can be added and removed in the field) to meet the demanding needs of Outpatient Surgery.

This series provides superior surgeon access with the versatile Articulating Head Piece, tapered back section and lot's of leg clearance while in stretcher position.  Thick cushions with memory foam offer exceptional patient comfort, and most importantly The TMM5 features motorized positioning for safe patient handling.

Utilizing a hand-held pendant allows for easy push-button patient positioning for both back and leg sections as well as a low/high height adjustment. It has a 500 lb. patient weight capacity. All TransMotion Medical Stretcher-Chairs come standard with the Quick Release back section for emergency CPR function. 

With the TMM5 you no longer have to transfer the patient from stretcher to surgical table and back.  The patient enters the unit in chair position in pre-op, staff press a button to convert the chair to stretcher position, roll the patient into surgery for the procedure, then press a button to set the stetcher to the preferred surgeon height, then roll the patient to post-op to recover in a comfortable reclining position. The TMM5 eliminates the need for patient transfer and manual positioning during their entire stay, thereby reducing patient fall and staff injury risk. Eliminating transfers also provides greater patient throughput.

In addition it can reduce the amount of equipment needed as it is: a chair, a transport device, a procedure device, a surgical table, and a stretcher all in one! Click this link to see how TransMotion Medical can SAVE YOU MONEY.

4.0 stars4.0 stars4.0 stars4.0 stars4.0 stars TMM5-TB a Must for Eye & Dermatologic Surgeries 12/30/2010
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful
Reviewer: Rebekah Groeneveld from Skyline Hospital, White Salmon, WA
We are using TMM5-TB Stretcher-Chairs for admitting eye patients into eye block area, then rolling them to surgery, then on to post-op care for discharge. In this manner we greatly eliminate the need for transferring patients from chair, to chair, to OR bed, and back to chair for their sakes and ours. It greatly eliminates transfer time, our backs, and patients who are sedated, elderly and have poor vision. It is a convenience and huge safety issue for both us and the patients not to have to constantly transfer them. (I'm trying to talk my facility into buying one more to make our transfer issue almost nil.) The TMM5 Stretcher-Chairs are also great for admitting patients into for shoulder/neck dermatologic surgeries (ie: removal of skin cancers, lipomas, etc.) We've also used them in recovery after a surgery for same day surgery patients. They work great for so many things.

5.0 stars5.0 stars5.0 stars5.0 stars5.0 stars Staff Raves about TMM5 Stretcher-Chairs 12/30/2010
Reviewer: Charlotte Austin, RN Nurse Manager from Eye Surgery Center of Augusta
I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much we LOVE these TMM5 stretcher-chairs. The ease of use has been a welcome relief from our other "manual" stretchers. I know for a fact that by using these stretcher-chairs, we have averted some workman's comp cases. My nurses no longer complain at the end of the day about low back pain. Every time we had to lift a patient up on the old manual stretchers, we would try to find someone to help. With the patient population getting larger in size, I don't see how any Center will be able to continue to use the manual stretchers. The nurses also love the fact that these stretcher-chairs go lower and thereby help us place wheelchair patients and limited movement patients on them. Every time we have a meeting the staff raves about how they appreciate the doctors going ahead and spending a little extra to help with the patient care. It has definitely been worth it. Our patients are more comfortable and my nurses are much happie

Reviewer: Luther L. Fry, MD from Garden City, Kansas
We have had our three TransMotion TMM5 Surgical Stretcher-Chairs for a little over a year now, and really like them. They have performed flawlessly, no breakdowns, easy to move, the girls like them, and quite comfortable for our patients. Also easy access for the surgeon doing temporal cataract surgery. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering surgibeds for their surgery center.
