MTI INTRODUCES THE ALL-NEW 550 PODIATRY & WOUND CARE CHAIR

Salt Lake City, UT — April 16, 2018 - MTI introduces the all-new 550 Podiatry & Wound Care Chair, the first chair to comply with Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations 1195 Standards for Accessible Medical Diagnostic Equipment.

MTI embarked on one of the largest projects they have ever undertaken - Design the Perfect Podiatry & Wound Care Chair.

Their journey began on the Medical Diagnostic Equipment Accessibility Standard Advisory Committee. As a member of the committee, Jeff Baker, MTI’s President, played a major role in improving ADA regulations for patients and caregivers with disabilities. In January 2017, the Access Board added Part 1195 Standards for Accessible Medical Diagnostic Equipment to Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations as a published document in the Federal Register. This regulation requires that the medical diagnostic equipment comply with certain requirements to provide accessibility for patients with disabilities. Click here for more ADA details.

The end result is the first ADA compliant standard, swivel and mobile chair with SmartTech™.

SmartTech™ is the combination of MTI’s Smart Controller™ and Smart Safety™ technology using a centralized computer controller that enhances safety, reduces energy consumption, and provides smoother movement, additional memory options, and more user preferences.

The MTI 550 Chair also has an industry first power footrest extension, which independently and automatically power extends 7” and retracts when chair is returned to the Home position. Click here for more product features.
