A bed for every requirement

Stiegelmeyer Deka Hospital Bed Stiegelmeyer Deka Hospital Bed Stiegelmeyer Deka Hospital Bed

The Deka from Stiegelmeyer is far more than just a single model of bed. It represents a platform with a variety of equipment options and dimensions. Every institution can build their own hospital bed from the available options to suit their own in-house medical and budget requirements down to the last detail.

All options provide users with the sought-after Stiegelmeyer quality and excellent value for money. They provide a coherent design concept that leaves plenty of room for personal preferences — such as the choice of head and footboards and decors. This allows the bed to blend in with the functionality and style of every hospital unit.

The ingenious clean line design of the Deka makes it easy to thoroughly clean the bed. The machine washable model supports hospitals with efficiently combating multi-resistant pathogens. Customers reap the benefits of Stiegelmeyer’s cooperation with Belimed — the leading manufacturer of machine washers.

The Deka is available in mechanical and various motorised versions to suit every requirement. Thus, it covers specific needs ranging from psychiatric care to classic applications in nursing care.

All models are easy to wheel from one place to another and can be effortlessly manoeuvred even within a tight space. Customers also have the option to add a 5th castor. Where space is limited, a narrower version is available in an 80cm, instead of 90cm wide, mattress base.

In addition to the numerous equipment options available, every Deka model can be trans formed into a bespoke dream bed using original Stiegelmeyer accessories. Read on to find out about the many options available on the Deka platform.

Deka versions offering motorised adjustment of the bed provide many comfort features and great safety and reliability. Here, too, there are many versions to choose from: Possible versions include a single motor for the backrest, 2 motors for backrest and height adjustment or the 3-motor variant (above left), which includes an additional motor for moving the thigh rest.

Nursing staff and patients can select all adjustment options conveniently and safely on a handset. There are 2 handset models which enable functions to be locked in different ways — on the handset itself or using a locking box at the foot end of the bed.

Briefly holding the handset in front of the locking magnet at the side of the bed (centre middle) is all that is needed for nursing staff to unlock the handset with its integrated locking feature (centre top) and manage its functions by touching the respective buttons. The handset with its intuitively comprehensible pictograms is self explanatory and easy to use.

The alternative handset is used to lock or enable individual functional groups with the aid of a locking box in the linen holder (centre bottom). The Trendelenburg position and reverse-Trendelenburg position can be quickly and safely activated with a lever (above right).

In psychiatric institutions, restless patients require special protection. The Deka has been designed to prevent patients from causing damage and to ensure they cannot injure themselves or nursing staff with any single part of the bed.

Our specially designed Deka for use in psychiatric care provides a high standard of safety in this medical environment. A very securely attached height adjustment pedal, tightly bolted brake levers, a steel mesh mattress base that is welded in place, and specially secured head and footboards all reflect the sturdy design. The great comfort that this bed provides has a beneficial effect and enhances the quality of life. If immobilising the patient is nevertheless unavoidable, the backrests and sliding rails provide additional fixation points for belts. With its customised equipment options, Stiegelmeyer provides tailormade solutions to meet every environment’s needs.

The Deka with a fixed height is distinguished by its outstanding value for money features. It reduces the cost of ownership thoughout its life span with its particularly sturdy and maintenance-friendly design. Additionally, patients and carers benefit from the Deka's special strengths, such as its hygiene-friendliness and easy to use safety sides.

Hospital beds often need to be allocated fast, frequently at far-out locations within the building. To provide ideal manoeuvrability, Stiegelmeyer offers various castors which are just right for meeting value for money requirements. The double castor (top centre) and integral castor (top right) have excellent running properties with their large 150mm diameters. The cover castor (bottom centre) and the standard castor (bottom right) ensure effortless manoeuvrability with diamters of 125mm. Castors can be braked individually or optionally centrally braked, as required. For excellent tracking ability and precise manoeuvrability in the tightest of spaces, we recommend the use of a 5th castor (large image).

An optional chassis cover protects the Deka from getting dirty and makes it easier to clean.

The Deka’s differentiated modular system can also be seen in the choice of available mattress bases. For particular sturdiness and durability, Stiegelmeyer offers mattress bases made of steel mesh, which are either welded in place (top left) or are removable (top centre). The hygiene mattress base was developed for quick and thorough cleaning (top right). This is made of polypropylene and impresses with its water draining design and breathable venting slits. Both mattress base models can be fitted with radiolucent backrests for x-raying patients without the need to move them (bottom left).

The Deka can be delivered with a 2-section mattress base with an adjustable backrest (bottom centre) or with a 4-section mattress base (bottom right), thereby providing a solid solution for various clinical environments.

A wealth of available equipment options transforms the Deka into a tailor-made bed. Many hospitals are making provision for an increasing number of taller patients. With its optionally available integrated 20cm bed extension, the Deka fulfils this need (top left). The linen holder at the foot end is extremely helpful by providing a place to store the linen whilst making the bed (top centre).

A patient lifting pole that spans the entire bed is able to follow the position of the patient flexibly, and also provides ample room for further attachment positions (top right). The space-saving round or oval tube lifting poles can be inserted on the right or left-hand side of the head end (bottom left)

The wall deflection rollers protect the bed and the room furnishings against damage by preventing collisions when moving the bed (bottom centre). The vertically and horizontally effective wall deflection roller protects the bed additionally during height adjustments (bottom right). The deflection cone prevents collisions from the outset.
