WALL-HUNG INTEGRATED SERVICE CONTAINERS
Several manufacturers are currently producing patient bedside units with
multiple outlets for medical equipment and patient conveniences, including
lighting, communications, terminals, medical gases, TV, etc. These
service containers are currently designed for use in general patient rooms,
intensive care units and recovery rooms. They range in complexity from a
simple flush-mounted console containing a limited number of service
outlets to large, modular, surface-mounted wall assemblies. Generally,
the container manufacturer's task is primarily one of coordination; he
usually fabricates only the container which houses the equipment supplied
by a variety of other manufacturers.
