ABSTRACT:-

The problem of transferring the patients exists from ancient times.

People who get seriously injured or ill were carried by others by means of
wooden stretcher with cloth or leather tied to it. Afterwards they were
carried on wheels which reduced the effort of the people carrying the
patients. Although we have evolved in the field of healthcare and
technology we are not yet able to address this problem The efficiently.
Mobility aids are used for transportation of patients. Wheelchairs and
stretchers are the most commonly used mobility aids for the movement of
patients. Transferring the patients from wheelchair to stretcher or to the
medical bed or vice versa is always an issue for the attendant or nurse. In
absence of helper to patient, patient himself can stretch the bed and fold
as a chair without any help of other person.
The main objective of this product is to make the helper life easy and
to make sure the patient is not hurt during the process of treatment. There
is a revolution of wheelchairs available today driven by needs and desire of
man. Hence we propose a design of wheelchair convertible stretcher which
is a boon to the medical field. It is so made that it could be maintained and
operated easily either by the patient or by the attendant according to the
comfort of the patient
INTRODUCTION:-

 Disabilities have affected thousands of families in the world. As of today 650 million
people are suffering from disability. Their disabilities can be empowered and enable them
to live a normal and independent life with the help of wheelchair.
 New and modified wheelchairs can satisfy the need of disable people rather than the old
and conventional ones. To help the disabled various design changes have been done. One
is by introducing a detachable defecation system to it. It provides ease to the patients and
the staffs.
 Engineers are continuously applying their ideas to make these products more and more
sophisticated so as to facilitate the doctors, patients and staffs more.
 Wheelchair is one of the easiest modes which serves the purpose of transportation for
patient and is considered as basic necessities in hospital.
