Podiatry Chair Electric Tilting – 2 Motors

The chair provides an adjustable treatment platform that helps clinicians position patients for foot and lower-limb examinations. Rather than relying on a fixed seat height and angle, practitioners can adjust the chair to improve access to the area being assessed or treated.

The two-motor system supports powered chair positioning, with foot controls available for convenient operation. The chair combines electric height adjustment with tilting functionality, allowing the patient to be positioned according to the requirements of the procedure.

The Trendelenburg function tilts the seat to raise the lower limbs relative to the upper body. In podiatry, this can help bring the feet into a more accessible position for heel assessment, treatment and other close-up foot care procedures.

Additional adjustability is provided through the backrest, leg sections and extending foot supports. The chair can also be positioned fully flat, providing flexibility for procedures that require a reclined treatment position.

The chair is intended for professional environments where reliable patient positioning and access to the feet are important.

• Private podiatry practices: Routine examinations, nail care, skin treatments and lower-limb assessments.
• Foot health clinics: Adjustable positioning for ongoing foot care and treatment appointments.
• NHS and community clinical settings: Suitable for consideration where professional podiatry equipment is required and local equipment requirements are met.
• Specialist heel work: Elevated foot positioning for clinicians who prefer to perform certain procedures while standing.
• Multidisciplinary clinical rooms: A flexible examination chair where adjustable seated and reclined positioning is useful.

Although adjustable, this chair will not be the most suitable option for every patient, procedure or clinical environment.

• Patients requiring specialist transfer equipment: An individual transfer and moving-and-handling assessment may be necessary before use.
• Patients unable to tolerate reclining or tilted positions: Positioning should always reflect individual clinical needs and restrictions.
• Clinics requiring additional powered adjustments: Practices needing independently motorised leg rests or a different control configuration should compare the available chair models.
• Unsupervised domestic use: This is professional clinical equipment intended to be operated according to the supplied instructions.
• Patients outside the chair's rated working load: The permitted load must be confirmed before use.

For clinics requiring a different motor configuration, compare the available electric podiatry chair options before purchasing.

1. Prepare the chair. Ensure the chair is correctly positioned on a stable surface, with sufficient space for safe movement and operation.
2. Check patient suitability. Assess the patient's transfer needs, comfort, weight and ability to tolerate the intended treatment position.
3. Assist patient access. Position the chair appropriately for entry. Move the swing-back armrests aside if needed and support the patient according to the clinic's moving-and-handling procedures.
4. Adjust working height. Use the appropriate foot controls to position the patient at a suitable height for the planned assessment or treatment.
5. Select the required tilt. Adjust the chair gradually. Use the elevated foot position or Trendelenburg facility only when clinically appropriate.
6. Position the backrest and leg sections. Follow the operating instructions to obtain the required supported position without causing discomfort or excessive strain.
7. Monitor the patient. Check patient comfort and keep all body parts and equipment clear of moving chair sections during adjustment.
8. Complete the appointment. Return the chair to an appropriate exit position, assist the patient as required and clean the equipment in accordance with clinical infection-prevention procedures.

Safe positioning must be assessed for each patient. Particular care is required when using reclining, elevated leg or Trendelenburg positions.

• Do not use positions that are clinically inappropriate or poorly tolerated by the patient.
• Confirm that the patient's weight is within the specified safe working load.
• Carry out a suitable moving-and-handling assessment where the patient needs assistance transferring onto or off the chair.
• Keep hands, feet, cables and other equipment away from moving mechanisms.
• Do not adjust the chair until the patient is correctly supported and informed of the intended movement.
• Do not operate the equipment if electrical cables, controls or moving components appear damaged.
• Follow the supplied instructions for cleaning, servicing and electrical safety checks.
• Use Trendelenburg positioning only when supported by appropriate clinical assessment.

The chair is intended to support patient positioning during professional care. It is not a substitute for patient assessment, transfer equipment or specialist positioning devices where those are required.
