Technology in the service of operators and patients

GIVAS presents VEGA-W, a revolutionary concept of electric bed, born from the synergy between our R&D Dept. and medical and nursing teams.
This partnership gave birth to a Technologic, Intuitive, Ergonomic and Efficient product that makes everyday assistance and sanitizing operations easier, thus increasing the patient's comfort and independence.
Cutting edge safety and precision

The new VEGA-W is meant for weighing patients with temporary or permanent disability, within/at the doctor's office, with the aim of diagnosing, treating and monitoring an adult patient* under the close supervision of medical staff.
The bed is equipped with a weighing system integrated into the structure; it is composed of four weight sensors (certified load cells) placed at the four corners, thus ensuring the exact weight measurement in any position the lying surface and the patient may be.
The weight viewer allows to constantly monitor the patient, throughout the treatment.
The display position can be chosen by the user, as it does not occupy any more space than the bed.
The 5-digit red-colored display (height of 2 cm) can be read from a distance;
Anti-blackout battery that allows autonomy and perfect functionality
even in the absence of electricity (10-hour autonomy).
Weighing scale capacity: 200 kg
Scale precision: 50/100g
* the word "adult" refers to a person with a weight of at least 40 kg, a height of at least 146 cm and with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 17.

Special functions
Funzione speciale Check weight
Spia Led lampeggiante.
Special check weight function;
Flashing LED light
Weight check:
It allows medical staff to monitor the patient's weight, by setting a threshold with a maximum and
a minimum weight. If the patient exceeds the set threshold, the weighing system emits a light /sound signal
Standby :
It allows medical staff to add or remove accessories from the bed (pillows, blankets etc ..) without affecting the
patient's weight.

It is simple and safe to have total control in your hand

POD control is much more than a simple Supervisor of bed functions and movements: it is a total monitoring system of all those bed functions that can be required by hospital nurses and healthcare operators.

Some of the most important and innovative functions are:
a) - Battery charge indicator;
b) - Indicator signalling when bed is connected to the power grid;
c) - Indicators for maintenance needs;
d) - Safety nightlight indicator when RED/GREEN light is on;
e) - Indicator of locked functions;
f) - Alarm when patient gets out of the bed unattended;
g) - Scale management;
- activation of foot controls locking
- memorization of lying surfaces positions
- activation of emergency Trendelenburg
- activation of backrest quick release for CPR
h) - Indicator of incline degrees of each section.

Bifunctional and self-rehabilitative ergonomy

The containment sides of the VEGA-W bed guarantee the patient's maximum protection for the entire lenght of the bed, as they
minimize the risk of trapping limbs.
(according to standard CEI EN 60601-2-52).
They are made of polypropylene, rotary printed and dyed in
the mass, highly resistant even under high stress conditions.
The ergonomic design of the handle allows the patient to move autonomously, thus avoiding excessive exertion for the healthcare operator while facilitating the patient's physical and psychological rehabilitation.

Total safety in just one look

Night hours are the most delicate time of the day for healthcare operators as they must ensure total safety for the patients.
Wrong height and section incline adjustments are the main causes for accidental falling of patients when getting out of the bed.
VEGA-W changes all of that: just one look is enough to know if the bed is in the safest night position.
In SAFE MODE a GREEN LED light placed under the bed casts a light beam on the floor that lets the operator know if the bed is in the right position.
If not, the light beam is RED.
SAFE POSITION

VEGA-W casts a GREEN light beam when:
- the lying surface is completely flat
- the bed is at its minimum height

If one of these settings is not complied with, then the RED light
will be automatically activated.

Reliability in any situation

A large lying surface is the necessary starting point for offering top comfort to patients. The ABS surface has been carefully designed so as to be corner-free, with soft lines and ventilation ducts that guarantee proper aeration to the mattress, thus avoiding any dangerous and annoying inconvenience for the patients.
An integrated system fastens the mattress in six different spots: this prevents any misalignments between the ABS surface and the mattress when the bed is moved.

Flexibility and ergonomics for any use

Thanks to the varnish with epoxy powders and plastic
coverings mixed with additive, the VEGA-W bed is highly
protected against bacteria.
Its surfaces are seamless and without fixing screws, therefore
they can be quickly and efficiently sanitized.
Furthermore, it is equipped with big and sliding wheels and
with a balanced structure that allow the operator to push the
bed with less effort than usual.
It is also possible to add a 5th optional wheel that increases its manoeuvrability even with sharp bends.
