Operating Room
Fully Automated Patient Lateral Transfer, Supine to Sitting & Boosting
make it simpull
As the majority of patients entering the operating room are in no condition to move themselves onto the operating table, staff are oftentimes working together to safely transfer the patient from the bed to the table. After transfer, the patient's posture is adjusted to be ready for surgery. This repositioning can involve lateral transfers and adjustments from supine to sitting, all while ensuring optimal positioning during each procedure.
The SimPull device makes it all possible with zero lift and zero force for your patient care team.
46% of nursing injury cases were from overexertion according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics.
Proactively reduce the chance of operating room staff injury
Even proper lifting techniques don’t prevent all injuries, and manual lifting, pushing and pulling can lead to repetitive motion injuries. The SimPull is fully automated and does all the heavy lifting. By reducing the physical strain on staff, it helps prevent fatigue and maintains a higher level of safety and efficiency in patient transfers.
1 simpull vs endless disposables
No consumables. No waste.
For a hospital operating room completing about 22 surgeries per day over the course of a year, around 16,060 disposable items like covers, positioning aids and disposable mats might be used and discarded annually.
* 22 patients per day x 2 disposables per patient (1 cover + 1 positioning aid or disposable mat) X 365 days per year= 16,060 consumables
1 simpull vs endless disposables
Zero ongoing costs
SimPull requires no consumables, and can save $2244 daily per 100 transfers using the existing bed sheet to transfer patients from bed to bed.
$2244 in savings daily per 100 transfers*

SimPull’s zero lift, zero force, fully automated functionality reduces the number of staff needed per transfer, drastically reduces the time required for each transfer to around 4 minutes, and can reduce injury and increase staff job satisfaction.
* Avg. Nursing Wage: $37.41/hr, 18 mins in time savings (Avg. NT/60min)*18min
one device, many capabilities
Multi-function patient movement
SimPull can be leveraged for lateral patient transfer, supine to sitting adjustments, patient boosting, and precise positioning for imaging procedures. This includes transferring patients on and off of the operating table and adjusting their positioning to be optimal for the surgical procedure.
