A3+ Patient File Trolley

Praticima Patient File Trolley for A3+ Medical Records

The Praticima Patient File Trolley for A3+ Medical Records is a professional mobile filing trolley designed to provide organised, secure and convenient storage for patient records, medical documentation and X-ray files in hospitals, clinics and healthcare facilities. Developed specifically for patient file management, this practical hospital records trolley helps healthcare professionals organise paper-based medical records while keeping them accessible during ward rounds and routine clinical administration. 

Available in front-opening and top-opening configurations, the Praticima Patient File Trolley can be selected according to the storage and access requirements of individual healthcare departments. Both models feature a robust epoxy-coated steel structure, an ABS/PMMA worktop and a key-operated locking system to help restrict access to confidential patient documentation.

• The front-opening model features a sliding curtain door, allowing healthcare staff to access stored files from the front of the trolley.
• The top-opening model incorporates a sliding upper shelf and a dedicated manoeuvring handle, providing access to records from above.

Adjustable internal dividers allow patient files to be organised into separate compartments, helping staff locate and retrieve the required documentation. The trolley is fitted with four 125mm swivel castors, including one braked castor, allowing it to be moved between suitable indoor healthcare locations. Four non-marking EVA bumpers help protect the trolley and surrounding furniture against minor contact during movement. 

Praticima also offers compatible accessories, including a three-compartment document sorter, plastic bin, removable extension shelf and laptop support. The optional laptop support allows healthcare teams to accommodate a compatible computer alongside paper-based patient records, supporting departments that use a combination of physical and electronic documentation.
