Immobilisation is one of the measures of rescuers, doctors, first responders, paramedics and, ultimately, firefighters in the care of casualties in accidents, both in traffic and all other accidents, especially at various falls.
In order to ensure proper immobilisation, quality equipment is also of great importance, which we offer at the FireRescue.eu online store. Only by proper approach, the right equipment and knowledge we can perform the immobilisation of the injured person well.
Immobilisation of the head
One of the key immobilisation of a person for a future healthy and quality life is immobilisation of the head or neck. That is why we use the cervical collar, which is placed on the neck and partially on the head. This action prevents movement of the head and possible fatal injuries. The cervical collar are different for adults and for children, they are also adjustable by height, because people are different and we have different size of heads and necks.
The immobilisation of the head of a person already on the stretcher (scoop stretchers or rescue board) is carried out with head immobiliser (Spencer, Ferno and FireRescue.eu). The head immobiliser set is consist of a ribbon lining, 2 side edges with a hole in the center for controlling the ears and two straps for fastening over the forehead and chin. Proper immobilisation of the head is crucial in the care of the injured people.
Vacuum struts
Evacuations, outbreaks and other injuries to the endoscope can be provided with high-quality care when transported to a hospital with vacuum struts. Vacuum struts are different in terms of length, either by arm, leg or entire body in case of pelvic or hip injury. Also, hard arm or leg supports are also available.
Additional immobilisation on the stretcher is carried out with strips or strip system of the so-called spayder.
Immobilisation jackets
In case of injuries in traffic accidents, where the immobilisation of the spine is essential before the removal of the victim from the vehicle, special KET jackets are used. The jackets are equipped with straps in different color, which enables us to increase the transparency and tightness of the belts, since the strips must not be tightened at the crossroads. It is necessary to use a cervical collar or a special cushion for the head. At the legs are strips in black, with which both legs are attached to the jacket and later when the injured car from the vehicle on the stretcher is released.
All this and more can be obtained only at the FireRescue.eu online store where we offer quality equipment from world renowned immobiliser manufacturers at affordable prices.
