Lufthansa Technik Offers Next-gen Stretcher for Aircraft

Lufthansa Technik is developing a next-generation patient transport unit with accompanying oxygen supply and medical equipment interface, it announced at the Dubai air show. The company is also touting its “floor panel hard-points,” designed to enable heavy VIP cabin interiors in carbon-fiber fuselages.

The litter was developed with Aerolite Max Bucher for intensive care treatment. It features an internal oxygen supply system with a breathing capability of 13,000 liters, a universal power supply for medical equipment and a control panel. Users can customize it thanks to drawers, racks and attachment rails for additional devices such as monitoring units or a defibrillator.
