UK group unveils big Arab Health plans
DUBAI, January 16, 2016
UK healthcare specialists Sidhil will be launching three brand new products to the Middle East healthcare market at the upcoming Arab Health Exhibition in Dubai.
A premier regional medical and healthcare trade fair, Arab Health will be held from January 25 to 28 at the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre.
The annual event brings together medical practitioners and healthcare professionals with leading manufacturers, dealers, and distributors to network and exchange best practices from across the globe.
Sidhil, a British family-owned business and one of the main suppliers of hospital beds and cots to the NHS, will be showcasing its Innov8 iQ with split side rails, MAP Pressure Monitoring system and Inspiration Cot products.
The Innov8 iQ is a hospital ward bed designed around four key points, patient safety, identified clinical needs, infection control and ease of use, with an aim to achieve improved tissue viability and increased patient independence.
The product also benefits from a very low height which reduces the risks associated with patient falls, the low height warning light illuminates on the carer’s handset to warn that the bed is positioned at its lowest height.
The addition of an intuitive under bed iQ night light illuminates the floor around the bed, ensuring safe patient ingress and egress.
With MAP (monitor. alert. protect), Sidhil has introduced the very first continuous bedside pressure monitoring system, which can be used on any mattress system to provide 24/7 data on pressure levels developing between patient and support surface.
It provides real time information on pressure distribution giving nursing staff and carers the accurate detail they need to reposition patients effectively, helping to reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers.
The other new product from Sidhil to be launched at Arab Health is the Inspiration Cot, which is an electrically operated, variable height cot with a two-way tilting mattress platform.
Designed in conjunction with leading UK paediatric specialists, the Inspiration Cot has established itself as the favoured choice of many UK paediatric hospital units; including Great Ormond Street Hospital in London.
Paul Hampton, Sidhil’s export sales manager, said: "We look forward to demonstrating our innovative new products at Arab Health this year."
"In 2015, export sales represented a growing percentage of Sidhil’s total turnover and, with a developing network of distributors around the world, we are looking forward to meeting with customers and distribution partners not only from the Middle East, where we are already well established, but also from Asia pacific and Africa," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
