Guide
ICU units guide: bridge, column, wall and vertical solutions
An intensive care bed is surrounded by ventilators, monitors, infusion pumps and suction. ICU units position these devices and their gas, power and data connections as close and as orderly as possible. Reanimed makes the ceiling-suspended BRIDGE type, the floor-to-ceiling COLUMN type, the wall-type ECE, MODULA and SOFT and the vertical SOFT V+.
Bridge, column or wall?
- BRIDGE type: suspended from the ceiling, never touching the floor; high load capacity and double-sided use; easier floor cleaning.
- COLUMN type: floor to ceiling, with pendant-compatible accessories and full-length rails; ideal where wall mounting is not possible.
- ECE, MODULA, SOFT: one, two or three channels; wall-mounted or suspended; economical and flexible.
- SOFT V+: a vertical form that saves space between closely spaced beds.
Ergonomics and hygiene
Staff must reach the patient from every side. Suspended and column solutions leave more free space at the bedhead. Smooth aluminium surfaces, concealed joints and easily removable panels support cleaning and infection control.
Planning criteria
Outlets per bed, the device list, bed spacing, ceiling height and structure determine the unit choice. Reanimed prepares a bedhead configuration diagram and layout proposal for each project; dimensions are tailored to the room.
