SPELEO STRETCHER BY ALP DESIGN
ACCOMMODATION AND SLINGING OF THE VICTIM
This Stretcher allows the best accommodation and fastening of the victim. Furthermore, it
meets the principles of horizontal rescue, as well as physiological and non-traumatic
recovery of the victim.
The victim is fastened in three different areas: legs through independent tapes under the
heel, with anti-slip fastening system on the foot; pelvis with stuffed seat-structure; this
system has been conceived and tested to ensure a good fastening even in case of pelvis
bone fracture, in order to allow easy access to femoral arteries and eliminate
compressions in case the victim has to stay on the stretcher for a long time; thorax with
girdle fastening system and stuffing under the armpits; this system ensures better
fastening in case of spinal trauma, and allows the vertical rescue of the victim with pelvis
bone fracture; the absence of belts prevents from compressing the sub-armpit area. In
order to improve the victim's stay on a stiff board for a long time, some mobile stuffings are
provided for the cervical, lumbar and popliteal area.
The head is protected through a helmet with sturdy and wide visor, and it is connected with
a special hood.
Then, the whole structure is covered with two wings of nylon fabric – insulated and
waterproof -, joint by means of pull-up tape (Velcro) and several belts.
The wide opening and stiff flat board allow positioning some medical-surgical devices
between the victim's legs, such as artery blood pressure monitor, bag perfusion system,
heater, urine collection bag, electronic temperature reader, anti-shock trousers, oxygen
breathing set with 3-litre bottle.
