Howard Wright M9 Electric Patient Trolley – Safe, Ergonomic, and Fully Motorised Transfer System
The Howard Wright M9 Electric Patient Trolley is an advanced, fully electric transfer system designed to make patient movement safer, smoother, and more efficient.
Built to minimise manual handling and maximise patient comfort, this electric patient trolley includes powered height, backrest, and tilt adjustments with an integrated battery backup system for continuous operation during transfers and emergencies.
The Howard Wright M9 Patient Trolley features a low 350 mm minimum height, allowing patients to safely place their feet flat on the floor.
While the maximum height of 800 mm provides an ergonomic working range for clinicians. With one-touch contouring, the mattress platform can automatically position into a comfortable seated configuration, ideal for observation, recovery, or patient interaction.
Trendelenburg (16°) and reverse Trendelenburg (13.5°) modes can be quickly activated via the control handset, improving flexibility in critical care and treatment procedures.
