Product Overview
The Sammons Preston Nurse Call Button Cord is a purpose‑built component for patient monitoring equipment, delivering dependable performance in demanding healthcare environments. Constructed from high‑grade, flexible PVC, the cord resists wear, abrasion, and repeated flexing, ensuring a long service life even under constant use. Measuring 7.5 feet (approximately 2.3 meters), the cord provides ample reach from bedside units to central monitoring stations, reducing the need for additional extensions and minimizing clutter in patient rooms.
Key specifications include a compact package size of 6.3 x 6.3 x 1.1 inches and a lightweight design of just 0.48 ounces, making storage and handling effortless for staff. The model number 60469 identifies this exact configuration, and the product carries the reputable Sammons Preston brand, known for rigorous quality standards and compliance with medical device regulations. The cord terminates in a 1/4″ mono jack, a universal connector compatible with a wide range of nurse call panels, bedside monitors, and alarm systems, facilitating seamless integration across existing infrastructure.
Additional features such as an integrated clip allow quick and secure attachment to bedside rails, equipment frames, or patient chairs, ensuring the cord remains in place without accidental disconnection. This design consideration enhances patient safety by maintaining a reliable communication pathway at all times. The cord’s durability, combined with its user‑friendly clip mechanism, makes it an essential accessory for hospitals, clinics, long‑term care facilities, and any setting where patient‑staff communication is critical.
Usage
In everyday clinical practice, the Sammons Preston nurse call button cord is employed wherever a bedside call button must be linked to a central monitoring hub. Its 7.5‑foot length accommodates a variety of room layouts, from compact single‑patient rooms to larger multi‑bed wards, allowing the call button to be positioned within easy reach of patients while keeping the connection tidy and organized.
Healthcare professionals appreciate the cord’s clip, which can be affixed to the side of a hospital bed, a wheelchair armrest, or a bedside table without the need for tools or adhesives. This flexibility ensures that the cord can be repositioned quickly when patients change positions or when equipment is moved for cleaning. The 1/4″ mono jack termination aligns with standard nurse call panels, making installation straightforward for biomedical technicians and reducing downtime during equipment upgrades.
Beyond traditional hospital settings, the cord is equally suitable for outpatient clinics, rehabilitation centers, and home health care environments where portable monitoring devices are used. Its lightweight construction does not add unnecessary weight to mobile carts or bedside units, and the robust PVC material stands up to routine disinfection protocols, including exposure to alcohol‑based wipes and low‑temperature steam cleaning.
Overall, the cord enhances the reliability of patient‑initiated alerts, ensuring that assistance requests are transmitted promptly and accurately, thereby supporting rapid response times and improving overall patient satisfaction.
