Sintang MT 0011

Product Code: HFAF-EAPF-3167

A shelf under the couch means no feet under the couch.

The shelf sits beneath the patient, so the clinician's feet do not. The Sintang MT 0011 measures 1840 × 690 or 760 × 790 mm.

The Sintang MT H-Brace Steel Base Treatment Table with Full Shelf and Adjustable Backrest is a rigid all-steel treatment couch measuring 1840 mm long by either 690 or 760 mm wide, at a fixed working height of 790 mm, with a two-section top carrying an adjustable back over a full-width grey laminate shelf, and a published load capacity of 227 kg under normal use.

Combining a raising back with a full shelf produces an interaction neither feature has on its own, and it is worth understanding before the couch is placed. A raised backrest draws the clinician towards the head end — respiratory examination is performed there, and consultation at eye level works from beside the patient's shoulder rather than from the middle of the couch. A full shelf running the length of the frame means there is nowhere at that position to put your feet under the couch, so a clinician stands further out and leans in rather than stepping close and staying upright.

That is not a reason to avoid the configuration, but a reason to check it against how your clinicians work — one doing repeated chest examination will feel it across a list. The same logic applies to what the shelf holds: a patient sitting up may need steadying, and bending to a low shelf one-handed while doing so is awkward, so keep mid-consultation items at working height elsewhere. Medigear.uk can arrange supply, delivery and documentation from Sintang MT across the United Kingdom.

Treatment and examination couches carry out the routine work of a clinic, and a version pairing a raising back with under-couch storage is aimed at rooms doing varied work with limited space. Typical use covers general examination, respiratory assessment, minor procedures, injections and dressings, phlebotomy, consultation and counselling, and post-procedure observation.

The backrest widens, which gives patients the room to be properly accommodated. Orthopnoea associated with heart failure or advanced respiratory disease, late pregnancy, significant reflux, high body mass and anxiety at lying flat all make a supine position difficult, and a raising back means those consultations happen properly rather than hurriedly.

The shelf keeps equipment and bulk items at the couch rather than across the room. Both features are useful; the combination asks one question neither does alone, which is where the clinician stands when the back is raised.

Respiratory examination shows it most clearly. Auscultation of the posterior chest is performed from behind and to the side of a patient sitting forward, and that is precisely where a full-length shelf removes the space to stand close. Services doing mainly seated consultation and dressings at the side will barely register the interaction and will get the storage benefit without the postural cost.

Patient access remains the compound consideration. A fixed 790 mm surface is a substantial climb, and the patients who most benefit from a raised back are frequently those least able to manage it.

Patients who cannot lie flat are still seen.

A raised back accommodates orthopnoea, late pregnancy, reflux and anxiety about being supine, keeping those consultations in the room they were booked into.

Respiratory examination properly supported

Auscultation of the posterior chest needs the patient sitting forward, and a backrest holds that position without pillows or a clinician propping them.

Eye-level consultation

Explanation, history-taking and counselling all run better with the patient raised than with one person supine and the other standing over them.

Equipment kept at the couch

A full-width shelf holds equipment and bulk items within the footprint already committed, which matters where floor area is scarce.

Storage that costs no extra floor area

The shelf occupies space beneath the couch rather than taking a separate unit, leaving the room's perimeter free.

A rigid all-steel structure

Steel throughout with a braced base gives a frame that resists movement under load, keeping the couch quiet and stable over years of use.

Two widths to choose from

Offering 690 and 760 mm lets the couch be matched to the patient mix and to whether clinicians routinely reach across.

UK supply and documentation through one route

Medigear.uk can arrange supply, delivery, documentation and assembly enquiries from Sintang MT across the United Kingdom, including the order code and conformity evidence worth settling before listing.

Adjustable backrest over a full shelf

A two-section top with a raising back above full-width laminate storage — check the working position at the head end before committing.

Shelf set-back and height

Neither is published — these two figures govern whether a clinician can stand close at the head end; request both.

Backrest range and locking

Not stated — request the angle range, number of positions, locking method and whether it adjusts with a patient in place.

Hinge line

The junction flexes with every adjustment — ask how it is covered, sealed and cleaned, and whether upholstery is continuous or two panels.

Full-width grey laminate shelf

Open storage beneath the couch — request the core board, edge sealing, clearance and load rating.

Fixed working height, 790 mm

The couch does not adjust in height — confirm it suits both clinician posture and patient access.

Two width options, 690 and 760 mm

A choice between patient surface and clinician reach across.

Length 1840 mm

Accommodates most adults lying flat; taller patients will extend beyond the end.

Rigid all-steel frame with H-brace base

Steel construction throughout with an H-shaped member tying the legs to resist racking.

Load capacity: 227 kg

Published as 500 lb under normal use — ask whether it applies in all backrest positions, and whether static or dynamic.

Upholstery specification

Not stated — request padding depth, foam density, covering material and approved disinfectants.

Fire classification

Not stated — request the BS 7176 resistance-to-ignition classification and supporting evidence.

Paper roll holder

Shown in photography, not in the written specification — confirm whether included.

Model number

Given as 0011 — a code also carried by another table in this range; resolve with Sintang MT before listing.

The Sintang MT H-Brace Steel Base Treatment Table with Full Shelf and Adjustable Backrest gives UK clinics a rigid all-steel treatment couch at 1840 mm long, in 690 or 760 mm widths, at a fixed 790 mm working height, with a two-section top over full-width laminate storage and a published load capacity of 227 kg under normal use. The backrest widens which patients the room can accommodate and the shelf keeps equipment at the couch — and the combination asks one question neither does alone: where a clinician stands when the back is raised and the shelf occupies the space beneath. Services doing high-volume chest examination should check the shelf's set-back and height against their working position. Six things need settling before order: the shelf clearance, set-back and load rating; the backrest range, locking and whether it adjusts with a patient in place; how the hinge line is sealed; whether the capacity holds with the back raised; the upholstery and BS 7176 classification; and the model code, shared with another table in this range. Medigear.uk can arrange supply, delivery, documentation and assembly enquiries from Sintang MT across the United Kingdom. Contact the Medigear.uk team for pricing, lead times and width selection.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything buyers need to know about sourcing medical equipment through MediGear.

Through the clinician's feet, which a specification sheet does not show. Raising the back brings the clinician to the head end for respiratory examination and eye-level consultation, and a full-length shelf removes the space to stand close with feet beneath the couch. The result is standing further out and leaning in — comfortable once, tiring repeatedly. Check the shelf's set-back and its height from the floor before committing.

Items set out before the patient is positioned rather than reached for mid-consultation. A patient sitting up on a raised back may need a steadying hand, and bending to a low shelf one-handed while providing it is awkward and occasionally unsafe. Keep what is needed during the consultation at working height elsewhere in the room, and use the shelf for equipment, bulk items and things laid out in advance. Note too that open shelving beneath a patient surface is exposed to whatever comes off the couch, so it suits equipment rather than clean linen or sterile stock.

Ask, because this is what decides whether the mechanism helps day-to-day. A backrest set before the patient gets on serves one purpose; one a single clinician can adjust with one hand while a patient is already positioned serves a much better one. Ask whether one-handed adjustment is possible with a patient in place, what force is required, from which side the mechanism is reached, and how many positions and what angle range are available.

Both are the points that fail first, and this configuration has both. The hinge between the top sections flexes with every adjustment, which works the upholstery there harder than anywhere else, and the gap collects debris and takes fluid running across the surface. The shelf is a faced board whose edges admit moisture into the core once banding lifts or chips. Ask how the hinge is covered and sealed, whether the upholstery is continuous or two panels, what the shelf core board is, and how every exposed shelf edge is finished.

Worth confirming, because the load path changes. With the top flat, weight distributes across the frame; with the back raised, part of it bears on an inclined section and passes through the hinge and its support. Ask whether the published figure applies in all backrest positions or flat only, whether it is static or includes dynamic loading, and what the backrest section itself is rated to carry. It is a standard rather than a bariatric capacity in either case.

Neither is published. Clearance between the shelf and the underside of the couch determines what physically fits — a box of couch rolls and a sharps bin need very different headroom. The shelf's own load rating is separate from the couch capacity. Request both, along with the shelf height from the floor and its set-back from the couch edge, since those two figures are what govern the foot-placement question above.

At 790 mm, the surface suits standing examination, dressings, injections and procedures performed at arm's length, and is high for sustained manual therapy. It is also a substantial rise for a patient to climb, since a seated adult's hip sits roughly 450 to 500 mm from the floor — and the patients who most need a raised back are often those who find climbing hardest, so the two features pull in opposite directions on access. On width, 760 mm gives a larger patient more surface while 690 mm shortens the clinician's reach across.

None is stated. Ask for padding depth, foam density, covering material and approved disinfectants, all of which matter more here because of the hinge. Ask for the BS 7176 resistance-to-ignition classification, the standard applied to upholstered furniture in non-domestic settings, where healthcare commonly specifies the medium or high hazard category. And ask whether the couch is declared a Class I medical device, since examination and treatment couches supplied for a medical purpose commonly are.

The order code needs particular attention here. The model number is given as 0011, and that four-digit format reads as a catalogue index rather than a working part number — worth confirming the code you should actually quote, and whether it differs by width. Ask whether the couch ships assembled or flat, what tools and how many people assembly requires, and the packed dimensions. Ask the warranty term and whether the hinge, backrest mechanism and shelf are all covered, since those differ from the frame. Confirm whether the paper roll holder shown in the photograph is included.
