Single Crank Hospital Bed

 A Single Crank Hospital Bed is the most basic type of manually adjustable bed, featuring only one hand crank to raise and lower the head section. It provides essential backrest elevation for patient comfort, feeding, and respiratory support but lacks knee elevation and height adjustment. Its simplicity makes it durable and low-cost, but it poses significant risks: patients are prone to sliding down the bed, and caregivers face ergonomic hazards due to the fixed height and manual operation. It is suitable only for minimal-care settings where patient mobility and clinical needs are very low.

Two-Crank ABS Hospital Bed

 A Two-Crank ABS Hospital Bed is a manually operated, adjustable bed that uses separate hand cranks to raise the head and knee sections. Constructed with a steel frame and durable ABS plastic components, it provides essential patient positioning (Fowler's, etc.) without the need for electricity, making it ideal for long-term care, home use, and low-resource settings. Its primary limitation is a fixed height, which poses ergonomic risks to caregivers during manual adjustments and patient transfers. Safety hinges on proper crank handling, secure side rail use, and awareness of pinch points. It represents a reliable, cost-effective solution for basic inpatient care
