CBS Healthcare introduce new product innovations to the Middle East market at Arab Health 2012
CBS Healthcare, leading designers and manufacturers of ergonomic support products, are to exhibit at Arab Health 2012 (Stand B57 Hall 7): the largest healthcare exhibition and congress in the Middle East, taking place at the Dubai World Trade Centre, UAE, from January 23rd to the 26th 2012.
CBS Healthcare views the Arab Health Exhibition as the perfect forum to launch their innovative range of products to the Middle East healthcare community. Greg Cranfield, sector specialist at CBS Healthcare, says: “we’re thrilled to have the opportunity to bring these products to this dynamic and thriving sector. We expect the high quality design and attention to detail demonstrated in our products to be appreciated in this up to the minute environment.”
CBS Healthcare will exhibit an original array of new products seen in the Middle East for the first time including CBS-Hi1. CBS-Hi1 has been developed exclusively for the healthcare market to meet the computing and multimedia needs of hospital patients and staff. CBS-Hi1 enables a screen (increasingly used for patients’ healthcare, entertainment, communication and information needs) to be safely mounted to a wall and easily adjusted. Amongst all the flat screen supports on the market CBS-Hi1 has the strength and adaptability to carry the largest spectrum of weights, ranging from 3.5 to 9KG.
The product’s flexibility helps to future proof installations – as the technology is updated the support can continue to be used. The inherent strength of the product means that it is equally suitable for touch-screen devices, enabling patients to communicate with staff. Its sleek and clinically clean design (with the minimum number of splits and moving surfaces on the arm) is a real plus for infection prevention. All cables are inside the arm which protects them from tampering and makes cleaning easier, creating less hidden places where dust, germs and bacteria can hide. It also helps to create a safer environment with fewer trip and snag hazards.
Another new product launch from CBS Healthcare at Arab Health will be the ‘CBS-S2S’: the most minimal wall-mounted workstation imaginable. The inventive design enables screen and keyboard tray to be folded flat against the wall, thus maximising the space available for patient care.
CBS-S2S was designed for healthcare environments where space is limited; this might be in a patient’s private room; at a nursing station or within a ward. CBS Healthcare have in the past carried out projects at Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital and The Department of Health, both in London, UK. The CBS-S2S screen and keyboard tray can be adjusted to allow the user to sit or stand while maintaining a comfortable position and good posture. The flexibility of movement also enables the screen to be positioned so that clinician and patient can comfortably share information on the screen when required. Data and power can be supplied within a concealed wall box and a CPU suspended from a separate holder will further minimise space taken up by the unit. This original new product exemplifies the approach of CBS Healthcare to product design: designing technology to fit around the person – never the other way around.
