Specially designed scoliosis chair for Bristol Royal

Wolverson X-ray sales manager Gurpal Matharu, senior paediatric radiographers Emma Norbury, Ruth Field and Jon Green and superintendent radiographer Elin Jones.
Bristol Royal Hospital for Children has received a specialist battery operated x-ray chair for scoliosis procedures from Wolverson X-ray. This 8100 Model, manufactured in Sweden by Mercado Medic, is easily controlled using a remote hand pad.
Superintendent radiographer Elin Jones said: “We have received very favourable feedback from patients and parents who have used this chair, as the children feel safe and secure. It is easy to use and reduces manual handling risks significantly. I was especially impressed with the willingness of Wolverson to work with us in adapting the chair to our requirements.”
