LUVXOM SH3-A-8-2

Wipe-down between patients is the argument for a moulded medication trolley. On wards handling isolation cases, or anywhere equipment is decontaminated after every bed, the number of joints on a surface is a practical concern, because a seam holds what a cloth pushes into it. A single moulding removes the deck-to-rim joint entirely, and the raised rim that creates the two published measurements also stops a vial or a pen rolling off a trolley in motion.

What it asks in return is working room. With 440 by 415 mm of flat surface, a nurse preparing a dose has noticeably less room than on the aluminium reference, and the shallower keyboard opening will not take every full-size board. Where preparation happens in the treatment room, and the trolley mainly transports and dispenses, that matters little. Where doses are drawn up at the bedside on the deck itself, the larger surface is worth having,g and the aluminium version is the better choice for that ward.

In other respects this moulded medication trolley behaves as its sibling does. Around 71 litres of drawer space covers a full round; two 7 litre bins take packaging and gloves to the bedside, and baskets keep frequently used items outside the drawers. At 55 kg empty and nearly 100 kg loaded, this remains a substantial item, so ramps and thresholds warrant an assessment. Medigear.uk confirms drawer locking, the approved cleaning agents for the ABS surface and the base footprint before this moulded medication trolley reaches a ward.

One-Piece ABS Table

Produced as one moulding instead of being built up from discrete panels.

Table Overall: 480 by 460 mm

Total footprint measured across the moulded edge.

Table Within Rim: 440 by 415 mm

Flat working area once the raised edge is discounted.

Deck Height of 940 mm

One height only, within 20 mm, and nothing fitted to raise the surface.

Shallow Pair, 350 by 400 by 105 mm

Internal depth suited to stock that lies flat.

Deep Pair, 350 by 400 by 150 mm

Greater depth for cartons and bottles.

Roughly 71 Litres of Drawer Space

Combined from the four published internal figures.

Two 7 Litre Waste Bins

Fourteen litres of external waste capacity in total.

A 2 L Box, Basket and Two ABS Baskets

Four further fittings hung around the outside of the trolley.

Keyboard Aperture, 365 by 130 by 23 mm

Measured inside, some 35 mm shallower than its aluminium counterpart.

Pull-Out Panel to 260 by 200 mm

The supplementary surface when fully drawn.

Vehicle Weight of 55 kg

Published to within 2 kg.

Choosing between this and the SH3-A-8-1 is a choice about the top and nothing else. Below the surface, the two are the same trolley: four drawers, roughly 71 litres, six external fittings, a 19 kg display bracket and a fixed deck. Above it, a one-piece ABS moulding removes the deck-to-rim seam and adds a retaining lip, at the expense of roughly a third less flat working area, a shallower keyboard opening and a smaller expansion table. Wards that decontaminate between every patient should take the moulded version; wards that draw up doses on the deck should not. This sheet is also better documented than the other, listing 7-litre bin capacities and a full material list. Drawer locking, base dimensions, and approved cleaning agents all remain unanswered, and Medigear.uk pursues each with LUVXOM before quoting this moulded medication trolley.
