This flexible mounting system can be used in applications such as on a surface, floor, cot/stretcher, and wall, as well as fits any ground and air ambulance configuration in North America and Europe.

The Cardiatek System is a robust solution that complies with the highest industry safety standards for the transport of medical equipment such as SAE J3043. It is also designed to meet Transport Canada and FAA airworthiness standards.
