Heavy-duty patient transport with a 1,000 lb capacity

The Gendron G1190 Heavy-Duty Transport Stretcher is designed for the treatment and transport of larger patients in urgent-care centers, hospitals, outpatient facilities, emergency treatment areas, and other clinical environments.

The stretcher supports up to 1,000 lb when the patient’s weight is evenly distributed. Its wide patient surface, hydraulic Fowler backrest, vertical side rails, high-density patient pad, and heavy-duty mobility system provide a practical transport platform for bariatric and high-capacity patient-care applications.

Wide patient surface

The G1190 provides a patient surface measuring approximately 39 inches wide by 79 inches long.

The wider surface helps accommodate larger patients while supporting positioning during transport, treatment, examination, and short-term observation.

The stretcher measures approximately 40 inches wide, 80 inches long, and 29.5 inches high from the floor to the patient surface.

Hydraulic Fowler backrest

The hydraulic Fowler backrest adjusts from 0 to 80 degrees, allowing clinical staff to position the patient from a flat surface to a raised-back position.

The adjustable backrest can support patient comfort, respiratory positioning, examination, treatment, and observation. Position changes should be performed by trained staff after confirming that the patient is safely positioned.

Two-position vertical side rails

The stretcher includes two-position vertical side rails designed to support patient security during movement and positioning.

Each side rail measures approximately 57.5 inches long and extends approximately 10.5 inches above the patient surface when raised.

The rails can be lowered during patient transfers and raised before transport. Facility transfer procedures and fall-prevention policies should always be followed.

Heavy-duty caster system

Four heavy-duty 8-inch casters support movement throughout clinical facilities.

The caster system provides steer and brake functions to assist with directional control and secure positioning. The brakes should be engaged whenever the stretcher is stationary or during patient transfers.

Four-inch patient pad

The G1190 includes a 4-inch high-density patient pad with a nylon cover.

The cushioned surface supports patient comfort during transport, treatment, and temporary observation. The pad and stretcher surfaces should be cleaned and disinfected according to facility infection-control procedures.

IV-pole compatibility

Four IV-pole sockets are integrated into the stretcher, with one socket located at each corner.

The compatible Gendron 10122 IV pole is available separately and is not included with the standard G1190 configuration.

Durable steel construction

The stretcher features powder-coated steel construction designed for heavy-duty clinical use.

With a wide patient platform, reinforced frame, high-capacity design, and mobile base, the G1190 provides a dedicated transport option for facilities that treat patients exceeding the capacity of standard stretchers.

The G1190 is designed and manufactured in the United States.
