TPM Research

TPM Research manufactures ergonomic patient transport and mobility chairs designed to improve both patient comfort and healthcare staff safety. The company's primary product is the Care Continuum Chair, a feature-rich patient transport chair engineered with biomechanical innovations not available on conventional transport vehicles. Key features include a patented Powered Assist Lift (PAL) system that raises the patient's center of gravity to facilitate standing with reduced effort and staff strain; a low center-of-gravity seating position for enhanced stability and posture; flush-to-floor footplates that minimize bending requirements during transfers; a powered seat-lifting system with semi-reclined transit positioning; ergonomic push handles; low-resistance full-range casters; and integrated accessory support for IV poles, oxygen tanks, and personal item storage. The company positions itself as a transformational solution for healthcare provider patient transport operations, targeting acute care facilities, long-term care, and rehabilitation settings.
