The stair climbing chair is a medical device specifically designed for managing the evacuation of patients and people with reduced mobility in emergency contexts. The structure is engineered to tackle paths with stairs and steps, ensuring maximum safety for both the user and the transport personnel. Thanks to the integration of gliding tracks, the system actively assists the descent, minimizing friction and drastically reducing the physical effort required from the operator.
Handling is made versatile by the presence of rear handles and front telescopic handles, an optimal configuration to facilitate ascent operations. Patient comfort is ensured by an integrated footrest and a movable headrest sheet, adjustable to adapt to different anatomical heights. The wheel system features four support points: the front ones are swivel and equipped with a brake for safe parking, while the rear ones have an increased diameter to increase smoothness on flat and irregular surfaces.

User benefits
Reduction of physical stress: the use of gliding tracks allows managing the descent of stairs by exploiting controlled friction, avoiding the lifting of weight by operators.
Ergonomic adaptability: the movable headrest allows stabilizing the patient’s head regardless of their height, ensuring a safe posture during transport.
Operational safety: the locking belts and braked front wheels prevent accidental falls or unexpected movements during stopping or loading phases.
Maneuverability in confined spaces: the front telescopic handles optimize mechanical leverage and footprint, facilitating maneuvers on narrow landings.
Storage optimization: the reduced thickness of only 330 mm when folded allows the chair to be placed in emergency cabinets or limited ambulance compartments.
Field of application
The use is primarily intended for emergency medical services and evacuation teams in public and private buildings without suitable elevators or in case of fire. It is a fundamental device in hospital facilities, nursing homes, and clinics for the rapid transfer of patients. It also finds application in civil protection contexts and for workplace safety management in multi-story structures, where it is necessary to ensure the safe exit of people with permanent or temporary motor deficits.
Why choose it
This chair represents the correct choice when a robust steel device is required, capable of supporting significant loads (up to 150 kg) without flexing. It is indispensable in scenarios where a single operator would not be able to manually carry a patient down the stairs: the tracks transform lifting into a controlled sliding operation. Compliance with the strict standards of EU Regulation 2017/745 makes it a safe investment for entities requiring certified devices for clinical and operational risk management.
FAQ
What is the difference between this stair climbing chair and a standard transport chair?
Unlike standard models, this chair is equipped with rear tracks that allow it to glide over the edges of steps without having to lift the patient’s weight, making evacuation on stairs possible with minimal effort and superior stability.
Is the device compliant with current European regulations?
Yes, the product is classified as a Class I Medical Device and is fully compliant with EU Regulation 2017/745 (MDR), with CND registration V0899.
Are the safety belts included or must they be purchased separately?
The chair is supplied complete with two black safety belts for securing the patient, ensuring the immediate operability of the device without the need for optional accessories for safety.
