Another critical factor in patient care is hygiene. Foam mattresses are typically designed with removable, washable covers, making them easier to clean and maintain than other types of mattresses. This ensures that hospitals can uphold stringent hygiene standards, minimizing the risk of infections that can arise from contaminated bedding. The ability to easily clean these mattresses is vital, especially in environments with immunocompromised patients who are more susceptible to infections.

5. Regulations and Compliance Crash trolleys must comply with specific regulatory standards and guidelines, which can impact pricing. Facilities must ensure that the equipment meets local and international health regulations, especially when dealing with life-saving equipment. Ensuring compliance often involves additional costs related to certifications and testing.
