Can this 'wheelchair' Really Climb STAIRS?! - Mobile Stairlift

[@blakejohnson4400]

I’m a firefighter/EMT, we use a chair very similar to this to help safely transport people downstairs called the Stryker Stair-PRO. It is an essential piece of equipment for us! It helps prevent injuries to first responder and those that call us for help.

That's neat. I'm a volunteer firefighter and when we have to transport patients (we run some medical calls too) on the stairs, we use what's called a stair chair. It's basically the same thing she's using in this video, but no motors. We have to pull the chair up or down the stairs, and it moves on the tracks so it's a smooth ride. Most commonly used on islands when we have to transport a patient to the fire boat. Maybe we should get one of those motorized ones? Always hard when it's a heavy patient or a steep incline/decline.

[@kenbrown2808]

[@kenbrown2808]

@John Reynolds I've seen pull carts with that wheel design. the super wheelchair I recall had two wheels on each side, and used the same technology as segways to be able to raise itself on one wheel per side and to climb stairs. as I recall, it didn't catch on because of the cost.

[@kenbrown2808]

@John Reynolds problem with cutting edge technology is it's expensive.

[@samarsemaan3735]

I’m a paramedic in lebanon, and We have the same non motorized stair chair. We call it an “EZ glide” and it’s such a blessing. Most of the homes in my area have stairs so narrow a regular stretcher won’t fit. And if it does fit, most buildings go up as high as 10 stories with no elevators so it’s a real challenge if we have to carry someone down.

[@wishiknew1974]

I’m having some health issues with my joints, but we had a family trip planned for New York City. This kzbin.infoUgkxuxJwamLFanm476LC5WPeTouyyU1GXomC was perfect! It’s lightweight enough that my friend could carry it up or down stairs when we needed to. (I can walk very short distances) It was comfortable for me to sit in, I would say if you’re super tall it might be a little cramped. I’m 5’1” and the foot rests were the perfect height. This may not be the best one for long term use, you get what you pay for, but for something that fits our budget that gives me accessibility while we deal with my health this was amazing.

To help make it safer (as in potentially life-saving) in case of operator error or incapacitation, I’d add a retractable cable to the design. You could attach the cable to the top of the stairs and it retracts into a coil as the unit climbs the stairs, preventing the unit from falling down the stairs.

Hey Jerry, I use those mobile airlifts in my job (EMT in Italy) so I can give you some suggestion to ease the process: When tilting the lift backwards (to go up) put your feete on the big black bar and push it while pulling the extended handle to yourself When going up stay at the maximus distance and push down (down towards the stairs, not the base of the stair) so you always maintain contact with the threads. When tilting down (when you reach down) use your weight in order to counterbalance Cambry. In the second half of the video I see you mention what I suggested on the second point, having a third person helping with the handles in the lower part help quite a lot. I really enjoy your videos, you and Cambry are one of the best couple I "know"

[@stevegreening419]

​@@Hans353definitely depends on location. Here in the UK carry chairs (what I've seen called a Styker Chair, Stair Chair and EZ Glide in this comments section) are used a lot just because they're easier to use than a trolley/stretcher/cot, especially in tight spaces and where there are stairs. Considering the biggest health-related "carrier ender" in HCPs are back injuries I am surprised electric carry chairs aren't used more (or even at all, this is my first time seeing one). In the hospital we don't lift at all, there's equipment for all of that, and if it can be powered equipment then it is. Surely it should be the same in the back of an Ambo, especially since EMTs and paramedics have to lift/carry/move patients more than any other healthcare pro.

[@sister7465]

I wish we'd have had this for my grandmother back in the 80s and 90s. She'd been relegated to a wheelchair after a series of massive stroke and it was so hard getting her places like getting into our house. Grandpa, dad and my uncle would have to lift and carry her up the front stairs for every family function. Eventually they came to their senses and we started having family functions at their house in winter and our yard in warm weather. I'll never forget how they struggled to get her up stairs.

As a concept I think it’s okay and maybe a good thing for public places. The biggest problem I have with it is the seatbelt. Every new wheelchair I get, the seatbelt is the first thing I remove. I’m very active in my chair and yes I’ve had a fall or 2 (and more). Falling forward with a seatbelt means you end up on the floor with a wheelchair on top of you, falling backwards is the same. With no belt, your fall is much less dangerous for the user’s overall health…. I’m very interested your thoughts on this too😉

[@JadeNeoma]

A seatbelt is necessary to have in a wheelchair as depending on your injury it can be that you don't have the control to balance yourself in the chair and would just fall out of it. Removing the seatbelt is a choice that should be available but shipping it without the seatbelt is a bigger problem

@@pattykat7734 I’m trying to remember. Make you extend the handles it makes it easier to lean it back. It does take a little getting the hang of it. I to forgot some of the steps. If it wasn’t so expensive I would have kept it. I’m glad they had a return policy. Once I got the hang of it it became much easier. Make sure the treads are going up and down the stairs on an angle. They should “ride” down/up on the edge of each step. It been a number of years since we had it so I don’t remember all the steps. My mom was a bit scared at first going down the stairs but got easier as we used it. You don’t need to push it up or down let the motor do all the work.

I think some kind of these "stairchairs" are used in every EMS around the world nowadays. The most basic model does not even include the tracks, and have to be carried by two operators. One step better option is to have the tracks, but without motor. Then it assist only when going down the stairs. This one is obviously best if you're going to need carry the patient/user also up the stairs, but downside of the motor and battery is added weight (if you need to carry it long way). For alone working taxi drivers who take clients with disability up or down the stairs, this is precious.

Thank you for making this video! I am new to the disabled life, and finding so many obstacles that I never expected to be an issue. Yes, the problem is that you still need to carry the wheelchair up and down the stairs, so this is not a replacement chair that can do stairs, it's an alternative to a stair lift. BUT! You have to have someone help you, you can't do it alone. So if I'm out and about in the world by myself, this product doesn't help me at all. Still on the hunt to find a chair that I can use on my own that can go upstairs as well. You guys are so lovely together, such an inspiring couple!!

[@rickpontificates3406]

It seems to me that if the tread was longer and centered directly under the rider, that it would be safer to use without fear that it falls forward, away from the stairs. You’d need the tread to bend at the bottom and top of the stairs to transition from stairs to landing and the rider’s back would have to transition from 45 degrees on the stairs to 90 degrees on the landings.

[@AgentDuke007]

In case most don’t know, that’s what this device is actually made for. It’s not purpose-built as a wheelchair - it was made to move furniture.

[@Yeest540]

I guess the biggest apparent improvement they could make to this is when a person is using it the center of gravity allows the chair to lean on the stairs by itself with no effort from the operator. What if, god forbid, the operator slips and loses his/her grip? Eeep...

[@NathanielHatley]

Agreed, it seems like they could have had another set of treads that shares the rear axle (so that they're driven at the same speed) and pivots off that axle so the front can press down against the floor to lean the chair back. The biggest challenge I think is making sure the second set of tracks is the correct length so that the user can't lean forward and cause the chair to fall forward.

[@PeterJavi]

That's the one thing that indeed concerns me. Having it stick to the chair if perpendicular force is applied is all fine and dandy, but indeed if the operator slips, the whole thing will fall forward. This whole issue could be easily resolved by having tracks come out of the bottom part, essentially creating a stable platform at a 45 degree angle, no matter if going down or up.

[@richardmillhousenixon]

I suspect you could probably just not fold the tracks out. Handle wouldn't be easy to access as it would be near the stairs, but maybe attaching a wired remote would work. Seems like the CG is close enough to vertical that just leaning onto the back of the chair rather than the extended treads would keep it stable on the stairs
