Product Description
The KED is a versatile, improved means of immobilizing and extricating patients from auto accidents or confined spaces.
The wrap-around design provides horizontal flexibility for easy application and vertical rigidity for maximum support of the spine, neck, and head during extrication.
The KED immobilizes the torso, head and neck, enabling prompt extrication while minimizing risks of further injury. X-rays or advanced life support procedures can be performed with the KED in place.
Includes wrap-around vest, neck-roll, two head straps and a carrying case. Heavy-duty, vinyl-coated nylon is durable and easy to clean and the KED stores rolled up, ready for immediate use. Built-in handles enable rescuers to get a firm grip on the patient and KED as one unit. Adapts to a hip and pelvic splint by simple inversion.
Adjustable, fold-back sides permit easy access to patient's chest. Can be used for multiple patient sizes, including children and pregnant women.
Color-coded, sewn-in securing straps and snaplock buckles for quick, easy application.
Effective in immobilization of pediatric patients.
