Medical casters (also called medical wheelchair wheels) are important parts of patient wheelchairs. When using them, special attention should be paid to some matters to ensure the safety and comfort of patients. The following are matters that need to be paid attention to when using medical casters:
Regular inspection: Check the status of the casters regularly to ensure the normal operation and no damage of the casters.
Keep clean: Keep the casters clean to avoid the accumulation of dust and debris that affect the normal use of the casters.
Correct installation: Make sure that the casters are properly installed on the wheelchair and the axle is tightly fixed to avoid falling off during use.
Avoid overloading: Avoid overloading the wheelchair to avoid excessive pressure on the casters and affect the service life.
Choose the right ground: Choose a flat and smooth ground when using the wheelchair, and avoid using it on uneven or rugged ground to avoid damaging the casters.
Tire pressure: Maintain the appropriate tire pressure. Too high or too low air pressure will affect the stability and comfort of the wheelchair.
Anti-slip design: Choose casters with anti-slip design to ensure that they are not easy to slip during use.
Avoid sudden stops and starts: Avoid sudden stops and starts to avoid impact and damage to the casters.
Lubricate regularly: lubricate and maintain the caster bearings regularly to ensure smooth operation of the caster.
Pay attention to patient safety: when moving patients, be careful to avoid sudden turns or rapid driving to ensure the safety and comfort of the patient.
Replace in time: when the caster is obviously worn or damaged, it should be replaced in time to avoid affecting the patient's experience and safety.
Pay attention to the load-bearing capacity: choose the appropriate caster according to the load-bearing capacity of the wheelchair to avoid damage to the caster due to load-bearing exceeding the standard.
Learn to repair: understand how to perform routine maintenance and simple repairs so that you can deal with caster problems in time when needed.
Following these precautions can help ensure the normal use of medical casters and extend their service life while ensuring the safety and comfort of patients.
