The TEMPS bed (Triage & Emergency Management Preparedness System) provides immediate additional bed capacity for triage during an MCI (mass casualty incident) or routine Emergency Department surge overflow. The TEMPS system consists of an easy to assemble, knock-down patient gurney and a color coded, visual indicator that provides critical triage information to medical personnel at a single glance.

The TEMPS bed is constructed of the highest quality polyvinyl chloride resin structural tubing which will not chip, dent, crack, peel, fade, stain or sustain bacterial growth. The patient support sling is a vinyl coated polyester mesh and is tension adjustable for maximum patient comfort. The TEMPS bed has been developed in conjunction with leading experts in the field of trauma and emergency medical care and has been field tested in rigorous multiple casualty disaster drills in hospitals in several states.

The mobile transport and storage cart, with dust cover, holds 5 TEMPS beds in the space of 1, and can be easily moved to any location within the hospital or triage area.

When used in conjunction with existing protocol, the triage color coded visual indicator assists in the rapid assessment and classification of patients according to the severity of the injury. Standard colors include Green, Yellow, Red and Black. Other colors available upon request.
