So nurses with muscles and brawn and nurses with platinum backs, what do you think is the single hardest machine to deal with when it comes to difficulty of maneuvering and operating the equipment....for me the kci pronator bed for ards patients works me up and im usually sore after a twelve hour shift....what's yours
i really actually love the rotoprone beds by kci, what a life-saver (literally). in a year that i have been in icu, we are the 2nd in placement on the rotoprone behind mayo and i have seen ppl walk out that we thought would code and never make it. . wow.
but as for the bad, probably the rotorest as well. great for lungs and nurses' backs, until your pt poops and you have to take it apart again, and again, and again. . lol!!
