Question
I notice that some units have heat or not heat. What is the purpose of the heat to cleaning medical equipment

Answer

The primary purpose of the unit heater is to raise and maintain the temperature of the cleaning solution. The tremendous amount of energy released by cavitation will generate the localized heat required for cleaning.

It’s possible to buy mid and higher-end bench-top units without a heater.  However, unless you use hot tap water to make your solution right before you use it, you’ll have to run the unit for a while to warm the solution before you clean parts. This may be fine for a time, but it does put extra run-time on the unit; and if it isn’t designed for long periods of operation it can eventually fail. Having a heater allows the fluid to be warmed ahead of time, and you don’t need to mix new solution nearly as often.

The temperature of the fluid will have an effect on the cleaning produced by the unit.  The characteristics of the cleaning fluid, debris being removed and the parts being cleaned can all be affected by solution temperature – since cavitation density and bubble formation is affected by temperature.

A parent was referred to us needing a crib with tall sides and possible top for her 3 year old child who has special needs, but is flipping himself out of his crib. It is not safe for him to be in a twin size bed because he also has picca. Cannot afford an expensive crib - any options

The most basic option for you would be our Standard Hospital Infant Crib.  This crib does have a top extender but that is an additional cost.  Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Question
when you buy a water mattress for a hospital do I need a pad under it I have never saw a water mattress for a hospital bed.Any help would be great as I dont know what to buy or even what is the best when it comes to comfortThank you,Annette

Answer

Dear Annette:

Water mattresses are not typically used in hospital settings due to high potential of puncture.  Water mattress overlays such as this one are more common.  If you can tell us a bit more about the individual such as age, weight, height, and issues and the size of a bed frame we will be happy to recommend a mattress best suited for your needs.
