Description

In today’s healthcare environment, patient comfort is of paramount importance. ‘GYNAIR’ brings an innovative design concept to gynaecology to promote well-being during the examination. The chair presents a new, filigree design language with a feminine touch. Large, slightly concave seat and back surfaces provide comfort and safety. The curved metal frame provides a gentle rocking motion from sitting to examination position. The metal frame is powered to tilt 20 degrees in a 1 metre radius, held in place by contour rollers and raised to the correct examination height by a lifting column. This makes the examination procedure more comfortable, as the positioning is achieved by gentle rocking, which can improve the patient’s well-being
