Most of us associate stretchers or cots as a white canvas supported by two long parallel poles, carried by one person on each end. Monster Medic takes a totally different route with its Powermed-X Cot, and judging by the sounds (and looks) of it, anyone in there will be in for the ride of their life. Features of the latest in patient transfer equipment include automatic load-leveling, handbrakes and an advanced data communication interface powered by a two battery system to help medics stay in touch with the hospital while they're still wheeling in the patient. This could possibly safe more lives than before, but don't expect any drinks to be served to you en route while you're on it.
