HALF-SKED Patient Drag

Skedco developed the HALF-SKED for extricating patients from spaces too tight or restricted for other stretchers. We think the HALF-SKED is ideal for tactical teams that need to secure and rapidly extricate an injured person. The HALF-SKED allows rescuers to bend the patient at the hips in order to turn corners in caves or confined spaces. The HALF-SKED uses two-inch wide chest and leg straps with side-release buckles to package the patient quickly and securely, particularly valuable if the patient must be immediately evacuated from a high risk area.
