Grace Medy FKEM-SDSS-6

NHS maternity units and consultant-led delivery suites are the primary procurement environment for the Grace Medy FKEM-SDSS-6 gynaecological delivery bed. Electric height adjustment from 720 mm to 1000 mm allows midwifery and obstetric teams to set the working surface height for each task without manual effort, directly supporting staff musculoskeletal wellbeing throughout long delivery rotations. The 70° electric backboard, 150VA battery backup, and ≥180° detachable legboards meet the functional requirements of consultant-led delivery suites where power continuity and full positioning capability are essential. Medigear.uk can supply the FKEM-SDSS-6 with full CE conformity documentation for NHS supplier qualification.

Private maternity facilities and independent birth centres benefit from the 2020 × 1020 mm table surface, which provides significantly more working area than standard delivery tables and supports a wider range of birth positions and clinical access configurations. The battery backup system ensures electric positioning remains available during power interruptions, which is meaningful for stand-alone facilities without hospital-grade emergency power. The pink upholstery aligns with the patient-centred aesthetic standards of private maternity suite design. Medigear.uk can advise on colour customisation for OEM procurement.

Gynaecological procedure rooms and combined delivery and gynaecology units gain value from the 0–7° table tilt and the broad 2020 × 1020 mm surface, which accommodates a wider range of examination and minor procedure positions than a standard delivery table. The detachable legboards, ABS side rails, and integrated IV pole provide the accessory configuration expected in a multi-use gynaecological clinical room. Distributors supplying obstetric equipment to hospital networks can specify the FKEM-SDSS-6 through Medigear.uk and discuss container-load pricing and OEM customisation.

Electric Height Adjustment 720–1000 mm Supporting Staff Ergonomics and Patient Transfer

The 280 mm electric height adjustment range of the FKEM-SDSS-6 covers both the safe patient transfer height of 720 mm and the optimal working height for active delivery of 1000 mm, allowing the clinical team to position the table surface precisely for each task without manual effort. Fixed-height delivery tables require staff to adapt their posture to the table, which is a recognised contributor to midwifery musculoskeletal injury; the electric height range of the FKEM-SDSS-6 inverts this relationship by adapting the table to the clinician. For NHS trusts with active staff health and safety programmes, an electrically height-adjustable delivery bed is increasingly a specification standard for new delivery suite equipment. Medigear.uk can confirm the electric height mechanism and adjustment speed upon request.

150VA Battery Backup Maintaining Positioning Capability During Power Interruption

The integrated 150VA battery backup system ensures that the electric height and backboard positioning functions on the FKEM-SDSS-6 remain operational during a mains power failure, protecting patient and staff safety at a moment when manual repositioning would be impractical and potentially dangerous. This feature is of particular clinical and governance value in stand-alone private maternity facilities, community hospitals, and birth centres that lack hospital-grade uninterruptible power supply across all delivery rooms. The automatic battery engagement requires no action from clinical staff, removing operator error as a risk factor during a power event. Buyers should confirm battery runtime and recharge specification with the Medigear.uk procurement team as part of the pre-purchase technical review.

70° Electric Backboard Covering the Full Obstetric Back Elevation Range

The 70° maximum backboard elevation on the FKEM-SDSS-6 exceeds the 60° limit on the FKEM-SDSS-2, extending the upper positioning range to a more upright angle that provides stronger support for expulsive effort during the second stage of labour and for post-delivery patient assessment in a near-sitting position. Electric actuation removes the physical demand of manual backboard support from the midwifery team and provides smooth, controlled elevation without vibration. The return-to-flat function maintains rapid emergency recumbent positioning capability throughout the delivery process. Medigear.uk can confirm the electric control interface and backboard adjustment speed upon request.

2020 × 1020 mm Table Surface — Largest in the Grace Medy Obstetric Range

The 2020 × 1020 mm table surface is substantially wider and longer than the 1200 × 600 mm surface on the FKEM-SDSS-2, providing clinical teams with significantly more patient surface area and lateral access room during active delivery, instrumental procedures, and post-partum examination. The wider surface supports a broader range of maternal positions during labour, including lateral positions that are increasingly requested in midwifery-led and physiological birth models. For NHS trusts and private maternity facilities commissioning delivery suite furniture, the FKEM-SDSS-6's larger surface area is a meaningful differentiator in clinical settings with diverse birth-position protocols.

CE Certified for NHS and Regulated Maternity Capital Equipment Procurement

The FKEM-SDSS-6 carries CE certification in line with the applicable Medical Device Directive, providing the documentary compliance baseline required for the procurement of electrically adjustable delivery beds by NHS trusts, CQC-regulated private maternity facilities, and integrated care board supply frameworks. The full conformity documentation package, including IEC 60601 electrical safety data, is available through Medigear.uk and supports multi-document supplier qualification processes. For distributors managing NHS maternity contracts across multiple sites, the CE-certified specification removes the need for additional third-party compliance assessments at each new delivery suite installation.

Detachable ≥180° Legboards for Full Lithotomy and Rapid Clinical Access

The manually operated, individually detachable legboards of the FKEM-SDSS-6 abduct to a minimum of 180°, providing full bilateral lithotomy for vaginal delivery, perineal repair, instrumental procedures, and gynaecological examination. At the same time, detachability allows rapid single-side or full removal without tools during post-delivery care or emergency access. The manual operation provides fine tactile control during active delivery that electric actuation cannot replicate. For gynaecological procedure rooms where rapid transitions between delivery positioning and examination positioning are routine, the individually detachable design reduces the physical steps required of the clinical team at the most demanding stages of each case. Legboard specifications are available through Medigear.uk.

ABS Side Rails Providing Lateral Safety During Positioning and Tilt

The ABS side rails fitted to the FKEM-SDSS-6 provide lateral fall prevention during electric height adjustment, backboard elevation, and table tilt manoeuvres, and offer the patient a grip point for repositioning in the second stage of labour. ABS is the standard material for hospital bedside rails because it combines impact resistance, low weight, and compatibility with clinical disinfectant cleaning protocols. The side rails contribute to the governance-compliant safety specification expected for electrically adjustable beds in maternity and gynaecological ward environments. Rail specifications, including the lowering mechanism and panel height, should be confirmed with Medigear.uk.

Dual Clinical Use: Obstetric Delivery and Gynaecological Procedures

The FKEM-SDSS-6 is specified by Grace Medy as a gynaecological delivery hospital bed, confirming that it is designed to serve both obstetric and gynaecological clinical workflows on a single platform. This dual-use capability makes it a cost-effective procurement choice for maternity units that also serve as gynaecological assessment or minor procedure rooms, eliminating the need for a separate gynaecological examination couch. The electric height adjustment, detachable lithotomy legboards, IV pole, and ABS rails all contribute to the clinical utility of the FKEM-SDSS-6 across both obstetric and gynaecological settings. Medigear.uk can advise on the suitability of configurations for specific gynaecological procedure requirements.

OEM Customisation and Container-Load Supply for Obstetric Equipment Distributors

Grace Medy supports full OEM customisation of the FKEM-SDSS-6 for distributors and institutional buyers, including alternative upholstery colours beyond the standard pink, branded frame finishes, and modified configurations for specific regulatory markets. Container-load pricing, minimum order quantities, and lead times for customised variants are negotiated through Medigear.uk, which manages the full supplier relationship for all trade and bulk buyers. Distributors building branded obstetric and gynaecological furniture ranges for NHS trust and private hospital network clients can use the FKEM-SDSS-6 as a flagship electrically adjustable delivery bed with the product identity their clients require.

Electric Height Adjustment Range: 720 mm to 1000 mm

The table surface adjusts electrically from a minimum of 720 mm to a maximum of 1000 mm, a 280 mm range that covers patient transfer height and optimal working height for active delivery and nursing care tasks without manual effort. The electric height function allows each clinician to set the table surface at their optimal working height, supporting staff musculoskeletal health across the full delivery shift.

Backboard: Electric, Up Fold ≤70°

The backboard is electrically actuated and folds upward to a maximum of 70°, covering every clinically significant obstetric backrest position from flat recline through semi-sitting to the elevated posture used in the second stage of labour. The 70° upper limit exceeds the 60° maximum on the FKEM-SDSS-2, providing a wider positioning range for active birth and post-delivery assessment. Electric actuation removes manual staff effort from backboard positioning.

Table Front and Back Tilt: 0–7°

The full table tilts forward and backwards through a range of 0–7°, providing gentle Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg positioning for maternal hypotension management, post-delivery examination, and upper body support. The 0–7° range is appropriate for a hospital bed context, where a conservative tilt is preferred for patients lying in bed during extended labour periods.

Legboard: Manual, Detachable, Abduction ≥180°

The legboards are manually operated with a minimum abduction range of 180°, achieving full bilateral lithotomy for vaginal delivery, instrumental procedures, and gynaecological examination. Manual operation provides fine positional control. Individual detachability without tools allows rapid removal of either or both legboards during post-delivery care or emergency access.

Table Surface Dimensions: 2020 × 1020 mm

The main table surface measures 2020 mm in length and 1020 mm in width, making it one of the largest in the Grace Medy obstetric product range. The 1020 mm width provides substantially more lateral access than the 600 mm width of standard delivery table configurations, supporting a wider range of birth positions and bilateral clinical access during active delivery.

Power Supply: 220V/50Hz, 150VA, with Battery Backup

The FKEM-SDSS-6 operates on 220V/50Hz mains supply with a rated power draw of 150VA. The integrated battery backup maintains electric height and backboard functionality during mains power interruptions, with no action required from clinical staff. Battery runtime and recharge time should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team before installation planning.

Standard Upholstery: Pink

Pink upholstery is supplied as standard across the table surface and backboard, providing a patient-centred aesthetic appropriate to maternity and private gynaecological suite environments. Alternative upholstery colours are available for OEM and bulk orders through Medigear.uk.

CE Certification: Medical Device Directive

The FKEM-SDSS-6 is CE certified in accordance with the applicable Medical Device Directive, confirming compliance with the safety and performance standards for electrically adjustable gynaecological and obstetric hospital beds. Full conformity documentation is available through Medigear.uk for NHS trust and regulated private healthcare supplier qualification processes.

Side Rails: ABS Material

The side rails are fabricated from ABS plastic, providing lateral fall prevention with a combination of impact resistance, low weight, and compatibility with clinical disinfectant cleaning. ABS side rails are the standard specification for maternity and gynaecological hospital bed environments and contribute to the governance-compliant safety configuration of the FKEM-SDSS-6.

IV Pole: Integrated

An IV pole is integrated into the standard configuration of the FKEM-SDSS-6, providing an attachment point for intravenous fluid management during labour, delivery, and post-partum care without requiring a separate floor-standing pole in the delivery bay. IV pole height and weight capacity should be confirmed with the Medigear.uk procurement team.

Castors: Fitted for Controlled Ward Repositioning

Castors are fitted to the base of the FKEM-SDSS-6, enabling the bed to be repositioned within the delivery bay or moved between rooms without mechanical assistance. Castors must be locked whenever the bed is occupied and stationary, particularly during tilt manoeuvres and active delivery. Castor specification, wheel diameter, and brake mechanism details are available through Medigear.uk.
