The Medline Freestanding Bariatric Trapeze with Wheels is a heavy-duty patient-assistance device designed to help bariatric patients with transfers, repositioning, and changes in body position.

Medline Patient Transfer Trapeze Features
The trapeze is designed for bariatric applications and provides an assisted weight capacity of 1,000 lb (453.6–454 kg). This allows patients to use the trapeze as an aid when changing position or assisting with transfers.
Unlike trapeze bars that attach directly to a hospital or homecare bed, this bariatric model uses its own freestanding base. Medline's DME catalog specifically identifies its bariatric trapezes as freestanding.
The wheeled configuration makes it possible to reposition the trapeze frame within an appropriate care environment without having to disassemble the entire unit. This is particularly useful when the equipment needs to be moved for patient care or room setup.
The frame measures approximately 72 inches (183 cm) high, providing an elevated support structure over the patient area.
There is approximately 26 inches (66 cm) of width between the base legs, providing the frame geometry required for positioning around a bed or patient-care area.
The trapeze uses a four-piece sub-assembly and tool-free design, which helps reduce setup time.
It is intended to give a patient a stable handhold that can assist with activities such as: Repositioning in bed, changing body position, assisting with transfers, pulling or shifting the upper body, and increasing patient participation during mobility activities
