Clinician support chair

Description

The Harris Support Chair - Standard (Model 1034) by Plinth Medical is a premium clinician support chair designed for use in medical and dental surgeries, aesthetic and dermatology clinics, and other healthcare treatment rooms. It features an ergonomically contoured bowl-shaped seat and sculptured backrest that support the lower and upper back and shoulders. The chair has a free-float design so the seat and backrest follow the user’s movements, providing comfort during lengthy seated procedures. A single-lever asynchronous mechanism allows the seat and back support to move independently and then lock simultaneously once the ideal working position is set. The standard version has a gas-lift height range of 45–59 cm, mounted on a robust five-star base with castors for easy manoeuvrability. Upholstered in healthcare-grade vinyl in Atlantic Blue, the chair is intended for intensive clinical use and is supplied with a 5-year warranty when purchased via Medisave.

Usage

  • Sit centrally on the bowl-shaped seat so that the sculptured backrest supports the mid and upper back while maintaining a neutral pelvis position.
  • Use the gas-lift control lever to adjust seat height within the 45–59 cm range so that hips and knees are at a comfortable angle and working posture is ergonomic relative to the patient and work surface.
  • Release the single control lever to allow the seat and backrest to move freely, adopt the preferred working posture, then re-engage the lever to lock both seat and backrest in place simultaneously.
  • If the chair is fitted with alternative castors, glides or braking options, engage or disengage them in line with local safety procedures and the type of flooring.
  • Clean the vinyl upholstery and exposed surfaces regularly using a soft cloth and manufacturer-approved detergents or disinfectants, following local infection control policies.
  • Periodically check the gas-lift function, castors, base, seat fixings and backrest bracket for wear or damage, and arrange servicing or repair as recommended by the manufacturer.
  • Do not use the chair as a step, platform or patient transfer device and do not stand on the seat or base.
  • Ensure clinicians are trained in correct adjustment of the chair to support good posture and minimise musculoskeletal strain.

Contraindications

  • Not intended for use as a patient treatment chair or for patient transfer or lifting.

  • Worn or damaged castors or base components may increase the risk of slips, trips or falls.
  • Failure to clean upholstery in line with infection control guidance may contribute to surface contamination in clinical environments.
