Transportation of patients and hygiene of the transport.

Seriously ill patients and patients, who can not move by themselves, with the admission department of the hospital, carry the wards on chairs for sitting or lying, respectively. Winders for lying patients should be covered with a plastic or oilcloth covered mattress that after each use is wiped with bleach solution of 3%.
Patients who can not walk, but do not require the supine position, are carried on a stroller for seated patients.

In the absence of litter for lying patients or inability of using it because of the peculiarities of the disease (of the patient), the patient is transported on a stretcher.
In and out of operating roomand, patients are carried on chairs of surgical departments. These vehicles have high sanitary requirements: they must be clean and stored in special local places, covered with pure white cloth or white cloth of patient.

Two or three men move the seriously ill patient out of the bed or operating table on chairs and on the contrary. If three men involved in this process, it's done in the following way: one brings his hands under his head, the second - on the back, and the third is supporting legs. If the patient is moved by two men, they both are on the side of the patient and take it - one, raising his hands at the bottom of the head and chest, and the second - in the pelvis and legs. We must take into account the localization of abnormal cells (lesions, wounds, etc.) on the body of the patient and place arms respectively.
Especially attentive and careful it’s necessary to be during transportation of patients in a state of unconsciousness (coma, state of narcotic sleep, etc.), because sharp change of position may cause or breach airway (asphyxia), or injury in cervical spine with paralysis of center of phrenic nerve, which will cause asphyxia.
