Grace Medy BCE5-RK02-1

General paediatric and adult inpatient wards are a primary deployment setting for the BCE5-RK02-1 Five-Function Electric ICU Hospital Bed. Ward managers and falls-prevention leads can rely on the 460 mm minimum height to meet fall-risk governance requirements, reducing the distance to the floor during unsupported patient movement. NHS trusts sourcing this model through Medigear.uk benefit from a documented procurement route that supports framework compliance and audit-ready supply chain records.

Intensive care units and high-dependency units demand the highest degree of positioning precision, and the BCE5-RK02-1 is configured accordingly. Back-rest articulation to 75°, knee-rest elevation to 45°, and independent Trendelenburg and anti-Trendelenburg tilt to 12° allow clinicians to achieve haemodynamic positioning targets without manually repositioning the patient. The one-button CPR function enables rapid flat positioning for resuscitation response, a feature of direct clinical significance in ICU and HDU environments where response time is critical.

Rehabilitation units require a bed platform that adapts fluidly across the recovery arc, from acute post-operative immobility to progressive mobilisation and physiotherapy-assisted movement. The one-button sitting position function supports structured mobilisation protocols, enabling patients to progress to an upright posture without staff-assisted repositioning at each stage. Medigear.uk can advise on configuration options suited to rehabilitation unit layouts and therapy programme requirements.

Home care and post-discharge settings benefit from the operational simplicity of the BCE5-RK02-1 platform. Family carers and community nurses can operate the hand controller without specialist training, adjusting height and position for wound care, medication administration, or comfort repositioning via the one-button flattening and sitting functions. Buyers sourcing for home or community use are encouraged to contact Medigear.uk for delivery, assembly, and ongoing technical support.

Hospital-Grade Fall Prevention at 460 mm Minimum Height

The confirmed 460 mm minimum height positions the BCE5-RK02-1 as a direct tool for falls-prevention governance in acute and high-dependency settings. A lower bed surface reduces the height differential between the mattress and the floor, which evidence consistently links to reduced injury severity during unassisted patient exit events. Ward managers procuring through Medigear.uk can reference this specification in risk-assessment documentation and CQC-facing quality-improvement reports. Falls reduction is one of the most financially significant patient safety metrics for NHS trusts, making this a procurement decision with measurable governance impact.

One-Button CPR for Immediate Resuscitation Response

The BCE5-RK02-1 incorporates a dedicated one-button CPR function that flattens the bed to a firm, level surface within seconds, removing the need for manual frame adjustment during a cardiac arrest response. In ICU and HDU settings where seconds determine clinical outcomes, this feature directly supports resuscitation team protocols and aligns with advanced life support guidelines for chest compression surface preparation. The backboard retraction abdominal decompression function provides additional clinical utility during complex resuscitation scenarios.

Five Independent Motors for Simultaneous Multi-Axis Positioning

Five independent motors driving back raise, knee raise, height, Trendelenburg, and anti-Trendelenburg functions allow clinical teams to make concurrent adjustments without waiting for one movement to complete before initiating another. This reduces repositioning time during handover, procedure preparation, and emergency response, contributing to measurable improvements in nursing efficiency across a shift. The Medigear.uk procurement team can confirm actuator specifications for maintenance planning.

Clinical Governance Documentation via Medigear.uk

Buyers sourcing the BCE5-RK02-1 through Medigear.uk gain access to a structured procurement pathway that supports clinical governance requirements. NHS trusts, CCGs, and integrated care systems can request CE certification documentation, ISO 13485 quality management evidence, and IEC 60601 compliance records to satisfy medical device procurement audits. The Medigear.uk procurement team is equipped to support framework submissions and supplier registration processes for public sector buyers, reducing administrative friction in the acquisition pathway.

Confirmed Mattress Board for Standard ICU Mattress Compatibility

The BCE5-RK02-1 mattress board dimensions of 1950 mm by 830 mm are confirmed and represent a standard adult ICU-compatible surface area. This allows procurement leads and infection control teams to specify compatible therapeutic mattress systems — including alternating pressure, lateral rotation, and hybrid foam configurations — with confidence in dimensional fit before purchase. Medigear.uk can provide detailed platform specifications on request to facilitate mattress procurement alignment.

One-Button Sitting, Flattening, and Decompression for Streamlined Care

Beyond CPR, the BCE5-RK02-1 offers one-button sitting position and one-button flattening functions that reduce the need for multi-step controller interactions during routine care delivery, feeding, and patient comfort management. The backboard retraction abdominal decompression function adds specialist utility for post-surgical abdominal care pathways. These integrated presets reduce the cognitive load on nursing staff during high-acuity shifts and are particularly valuable in busy ward environments.

Home and Community Care Suitability with Carer-Accessible Controls

For post-discharge and home care buyers, the BCE5-RK02-1 offers a clinically capable bed platform in a format accessible to non-clinical carers. Electric height and position adjustment via the hand controller does not require nursing qualifications to operate safely, and the one-button presets simplify routine repositioning for family members or community care workers. Medigear.uk supports individual buyers through the delivery, installation, and initial set-up process, including guidance on controller operation and central locking.

Multi-Angle Tilt Range for Haemodynamic and Airway Management

Trendelenburg tilt of 0–12° and anti-Trendelenburg tilt of 0–12° provide clinical teams with the angular range required for haemodynamic management, airway positioning, and certain surgical preparation protocols. These positions are operable independently of the bed's height setting, allowing combined adjustments during active patient monitoring without resetting either axis. The Medigear.uk procurement team can confirm exact tilt motor specifications and control sequences on request.

Procurement-Ready for NHS Tenders and Distributor Frameworks

The BCE5-RK02-1 is positioned for direct inclusion in NHS tender responses and distributor framework agreements. B2B buyers can request full technical data packs, CE documentation, and OEM configuration options via Medigear—UK, streamlining the submission process for public-sector procurement. The confirmed dimensional and functional specification makes the bed straightforward to compare against tender requirement matrices without requiring pre-submission site visits.

Minimum Height: 460 mm

The BCE5-RK02-1 achieves a confirmed minimum frame height of 460 mm in the lowered electric position. This specification directly supports falls-prevention protocols in acute and high-dependency settings by minimising the vertical distance between the mattress surface and the floor. At this height, most standard ICU mattress systems provide a sleeping surface of approximately 510–560 mm above floor level, depending on mattress depth.

Maximum Height: 720 mm

At its maximum electric height of 720 mm, the BCE5-RK02-1 provides a working surface height well-suited for clinical procedures, wound care, and nursing interventions that require staff to work at an ergonomically neutral position. This upper limit accommodates the full range of adult patient sizes and clinical equipment positioned beneath the frame during care delivery.

Total Height Adjustment Range: 260 mm

The 260 mm total height range of the BCE5-RK02-1 — spanning 460 mm to 720 mm — provides clinical teams with sufficient vertical travel to transition between low-safe patient positioning and optimal clinical working height within a single admission, without requiring manual intervention or supplementary equipment.

Backrest Articulation Range: 0° to 75° (±2%)

The BCE5-RK02-1 backrest articulates from flat (0°) to a confirmed 75° (±2%), enabling the full range of Fowler's positioning from semi-recumbent to near-upright. This range supports ventilator-associated pneumonia prevention protocols that require head-of-bed elevation above 30°, as well as feeding, respiratory therapy, and patient comfort positioning. The backrestor operates independently of other articulation functions.

Knee Rest Elevation Range: 0° to 45° (±2%)

Knee-rest elevation from 0° to a confirmed 45° (±2%) supports lower-limb oedema management, postoperative deep vein thrombosis prevention protocols, and patient comfort positioning during extended admissions. The knee rest operates in coordination with the leg section to maintain physiological limb alignment during elevation. Independent motor control allows the knee raise to be adjusted without altering the backrest height positions.

Trendelenburg Tilt: 0° to 12°

The BCE5-RK02-1 provides confirmed Trendelenburg (head-down) tilt from 0° to 12°, supporting haemodynamic management, central line insertion positioning, and specific surgical preparation protocols. The tilt function is operable independently of height position, allowing combined adjustments during active patient monitoring without resetting either axis. The exact tilt motor specification should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team.

Anti-Trendelenburg Tilt: 0° to 12°

Confirmed reverse Trendelenburg (head-up) tilt from 0° to 12° is available on the BCE5-RK02-1, supporting airway management, reflux prevention, and postoperative recovery positioning. This position is independently controllable relative to all other articulation axes, enabling clinical teams to optimise patient posture to meet concurrent therapeutic goals without compromising mechanical integrity.

Motor System: Five Independent Electric Motors

The BCE5-RK02-1 is driven by five independent electric motors covering back raise, knee raise, height adjustment, Trendelenburg, and anti-Trendelenburg functions. Motor independence means each axis can be adjusted simultaneously without mechanical interdependency, reducing total repositioning time and enabling precise multi-axis positioning during complex clinical procedures. Motor count, actuator type, and noise rating should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team.

One-Button CPR Function

A dedicated one-button CPR control rapidly flattens the bed to a firm, level surface for immediate chest compression delivery. This function bypasses the standard controller sequence, enabling a resuscitation-ready bed position without multi-step input from attending staff. The backboard retraction abdominal decompression function is available in conjunction with the CPR preset for complex resuscitation scenarios.

One-Button Sitting Position and One-Button Flattening

Pre-programmed one-button sitting position and one-button flattening functions reduce controller interaction during routine care delivery and patient mobilisation. These presets are particularly useful during busy ward shifts where rapid position changes are required without manual angle adjustment. The exact preset angle for the sitting position should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team.

Frame Articulation: Multi-Section Configuration

The BCE5-RK02-1 frame is designed in multiple sections to enable independent articulation of the back, seat, knee, and leg regions, consistent with standard five-function ICU bed architecture. The section count and precise mechanical configuration should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team. Multi-section frames allow clinical positioning protocols — including semi-recumbent positioning to prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia — to be implemented without patient-handling manoeuvres.

Side Rail System: Multi-Panel with Lowering Mechanism

The BCE5-RK02-1 incorporates a multi-panel side rail system on both sides of the bed. The rail material, individual panel count, and lowering mechanism type should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team. Side rails are a primary patient containment safety feature in ICU settings and must meet the dimensional and strength requirements of applicable medical device standards.

Hand Controller: Central Locking, Child Lock, and One-Button Presets

The BCE5-RK02-1 is operated via a hand controller managing all five electric functions, three one-button presets (CPR, sitting, flattening), central caster locking, and a child-lock mechanism. The controller restricts unauthorised position changes when the child lock is engaged. Exact button count and layout should be confirmed with Medigear.uk.

Head Board and Foot Board: Clinical-Grade Panel Material

The material specifications for the BCE5-RK02-1headboard and footboard should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team. Board material affects decontamination compatibility, impact resistance, and the ability to attach clinical accessories such as document holders or monitoring brackets. The backboard retraction function integrates with the headboard sign to support abdominal decompression during CPR.

Mattress Board: 1950 mm × 830 mm

The usable mattress board of the BCE5-RK02-1 is confirmed to be 1950 mm long and 830 mm wide, accommodating standard adult ICU mattresses. Depth compatibility range should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team. Buyers are advised to provide mattress specifications when requesting compatibility confirmation for specialist or bariatric mattress systems.

Frame Material and Castor Specification: Confirm with Medigear.uk

The structural frame material and its surface treatment should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team for the BCE5-RK02-1. Castor diameter, material, and braking configuration — including the central locking system — should also be confirmed.
