Medical Gas Rail Introduction

The Lifespan Medical Gas Rail is a wall-mounted, integrated equipment management system that distributes medical gases – typically oxygen, air and vacuum. Its sleek, unobtrusive but functional design helps remove clutter from the floor of patient rooms, special treatment facilities or outpatient recovery areas. Typically placed along the headwall of patient rooms, the medical gas rail can be fitted with accessories such as storage baskets, monitor shelves, holders for blood pressure monitors, blenders, suction containers, glove and tissue boxes, sharps containers and other storage or organizational accessories available in our extensive Rail and Accessories product line. The care staff can place any accessories, and reposition them at any time, without using tools. Being able to personalize a work space — whether based on individual preference, unit protocol, or institutional norms — is a great motivator for the staff.

The soft, non-intrusive aesthetic of the Lifespan Medical Gas Rail, and its companion product, the Lifespan Power Rail, give treatment areas a friendly, non-clinical ambiance and helps to put patients and family members at ease.

The Lifespan Medical Gas Rail can be surface-mounted, often even on existing walls, without much of the disruption and cost associated with installing in-wall gas distribution. Furthermore, non-invasive future expandability is easy by substituting gas outlets for expansion plugs. This makes the Medical Gas Rail ideal for upgrading facilities in response to changing demographics, protocols and codes.
