When it comes to barrier-free accessibility of body plethysmography, the following crucial criteria must be considered:
Accessible design:
- Accessibility for wheelchair users and people with limited mobility: The GANSHORN PowerCube Body+ offers a decisive advantage in this area: the wheelchair configuration. This means that the patient does not have to move from the wheelchair at all into the cabin, but can drive directly into the body box with the wheelchair. Only GANSHORN offers two customized entry options here:
Entry with a straight ramp and entry with a corner ramp
Curved entry ramp
Straight entry ramp
- Wide door opening: A wide door opening allows access – you can also order an XL cabin variant from us specifically for this point.
- Handles and brackets: Handles attached inside and outside can provide additional support.
Assistive technology:
- Hearing support: Devices with acoustic signals should be supplemented with visual displays to support people with hearing impairments.
- Voice control: Voice-controlled commands can make operation easier for people with physical limitations.
- Braille labeling: Control panels and instructions in Braille for visually impaired patients.
Personalized adjustments:
- Adjustable sitting and standing options: Sitting and standing options for patients who cannot sit.
- Flexible mouthpiece design: Mouthpieces that are easy to reach and adjust: Our SpiroDef filter system is particularly well suited for this.
Advanced safety measures:
- Emergency buttons: Easily accessible emergency buttons inside the chamber for patients who feel unwell or need assistance.
By implementing these accessibility measures, body plethysmographs can be made accessible to a wider range of patients, contributing to more inclusive healthcare.
