Spine board is also referred to as spinal board, spine stretcher or plastic stretcher, which is a plastic stretcher which can be used to prevent secondary injury to patients during transportation.
spine boards with head immobilizer is one of the most commonly used spine boards because the patient's head is fixed down by the head immobilizer located at the top of the stretcher to avoid secondary injuries to the injured person during transportation.
Using a spine board with a head immobilizer is a crucial step in stabilizing and transporting patients who have suffered a spinal injury.
Step 1: Assess the patient's condition. Before moving the patient, ensure that they are stable and that their airway is clear. If possible, have someone hold the patient's head and neck in a neutral position while you prepare to immobilize them.
Step 2: Place the spine board beside the patient. Position the board so that it is parallel to the patient's body and level with their shoulders.
Step 3: Secure the patient's head and neck. Use the head immobilizer to secure the patient's head and neck to the spine board. Make sure that the straps are tight enough to hold the head and neck in a neutral position, but not so tight that they cause discomfort.
Step 4: Secure the patient's body to the spine board. Use straps or other fastening devices to secure the patient's body to the spine board. Make sure that the straps are tight enough to hold the body securely in place, but not so tight that they cause discomfort.
Step 5: Transport the patient. Carefully move the patient and the spine board to the destination, such as an ambulance or hospital. Try to minimize movement during transport to prevent further injury.
It's important to note that using a spine board with a head immobilizer should only be done by trained professionals and in emergency situations. And also follow the local protocols and guidelines.
The most common type of spine board is a plastic stretcher with a head immobilizer. There are two major problems with using this type of spine board for transport: the stretcher can slip out of the patient’s neck, and the head immobilizer can easily slip out of place.
To overcome these problems, steel alloy steel wire is used to give rigidity to the stretcher and head immobilizer. On top of that, a retaining mechanism (a pad) is fixed in place on the base plate to keep them in place. The head immobilizer uses an acrylic material which has been coated with silicone rubber so it will not slip out when moving. As a result, patients who use this type of spine board with head immobilizer may have no problem during transportation.
The benefits of using this type more than outweighing any risks because the patient does not have to hold the stretcher or identify its position again and again during transport.
Fixed lift board with head immobilizer is used to lift the injured person in a fixed position, while floating rescue board is used to prevent secondary injury at the scene of accident. In both cases, there are two types of spine board:
spine board stretcher (SPB)
portable spine board stretcher
The first type can be properly called SPB because it can be easily fitted on an ambulance or other vehicle for transporting patients who have suffered spinal injuries by transporting them by stretcher. The second type is portable spine board stretcher because it can be mounted on any vehicle and can then be used as an alternate method for transporting patients who have suffered spinal injuries by using it as a stretcher or using it as an alternative method for supporting the body weight of patients who have sustained spinal injuries.
But it should be noted that spine board is not suitable for transportation when there are many people or when the injured person has extensive injury on his/her back and other parts of his/her body; therefore, this type of transportation should not be done without considering these factors beforehand. The first step in this regard should be to determine whether this type of transportation will cause only secondary injury or whether there will also be additional significant injury caused by applying more forces than usual during transport; furthermore, one should also consider whether this type of transportation would cause more harm than good (for example, if one wants to carry out some preventive measures). Based on these considerations, one should decide whether one’s purpose would be better served by carrying out such transportation in order to avoid secondary injury or if it would better serve one’s purpose if he/she intentionally uses this transport after assessing these factors (for example, if one wants to carry out some preventive measures).
As we know that transport may cause secondary injury that might even result into life-threatening injuries if they do not use SPB properly or if they do use SPB improperly, it may lead to further damage to the injured area, resulting in missing the best time to save the injured person.
The spine board with head Immobilizer from China factory a non-rigid frame, which is basically a frame that allows lifting on both sides. However, the spine board stretcher has several special features compared to other boards or frames that are available, specifically:
It can be used to move patients who have been paralyzed (either temporarily or permanently).
It is able to be used as an emergency stretcher because it has two flat sides instead of one curved side.
It can also easily be moved into an ambulance truck as well as any other vehicle designed for moving patients with spinal injuries (like wheelchairs).
Although these features sound very special, they aren’t actually all that extraordinary; especially when you consider how simple it is to use them — just like how you would use any other stretcher or frame. The thing you need to know about this board is that it does not have wheels, so it needs to be moved by someone else. This makes this board different from some others because it doesn’t need wheels — you just need someone else(s) to push it in place! So what happens when I want to transport a patient? I will take him/her out of his/her bed onto his/her stretcher, put his/her head on the table (the patient’s knees should go under his/her body), put their feet on either side of his/her back and then take hold of each end of his/her head and pull him/her up by one end of the stretcher. This should lift them up above their head. That way I don’t damage their neck at all, unless they are really heavy people who weigh around 200 pounds or so (depending upon how long they have been paralyzed). We usually carry out this process using two people – one person holds down one end of the stretcher while another person pushes up against him/her with his/her hands.
Nowadays, in terms of material selection, stretchers are made of high-quality aluminum alloy materials, and plush foam cushions, so they are not only more suitable for rescuing patients when using them but are also more convenient to use and relatively simple to operate. In particular, the current use of stretchers with ambulances can better reflect its value and characteristics. If you want to buy safe ambulance stretchers in large quantities, you can learn about the performance and characteristics of this stretcher, as well as the scope of application, including how to choose the manufacturer when buying.
The ambulance stretcher is different from other stretchers because the ambulance has a relatively small space. In selecting the stretcher-making materials, stretcher length and width, it must be light and dexterous in terms of structure, so that it is more convenient to use when going up and down the ambulance. Therefore, the stretchers used in ambulances today are all made of aluminum alloy materials, which are relatively light in weight, and appear more flexible and convenient throughout the use process.
ambulance stretchers are mainly used to pick up sick patients or patients with severe trauma. When choosing a stretcher like this, it is important to consider the patient's comfort in lying down, so that the patient can rest quietly while lying on it. Especially for patients with limb injuries, if they are not comfortable lying on the stretcher themselves, it will cause patients with severe physical injuries to be more impatient. Therefore, foam cushions will be laid on this stretcher, and lying on it will not look like a hard board will hurt people. Even if the limb injury is serious, or the patient himself is thin due to malnutrition due to illness, he will not feel uncomfortable.
The ambulance stretcher used today is relatively scientific in design, so telescopic handles are provided on both ends of the stretcher because the stretcher needs to enter the patient's room, and even cross stairways or elevators. If we treat some seriously injured people, the environment is worse, so if possible, both ends should be designed with shrink handles, which will be more convenient and practical when lifting patients.
There are no wheels on urban rescue stretchers. If the distance is relatively long, it will be more difficult to lift patients, and it will take longer. Therefore, when designing a stretcher, it is necessary to have wheels underneath, so that it can be pushed and walked when rescuing patients. This is faster than carrying and walking, shortens the time to save people, and will do a better job of saving the patient's life.
ambulance stretchers are one of the most commonly used in hospitals because when patients have heart infarction, or other need first aid, they need to call 120, then the ambulance will come to the scene with the stretcher, so now hospital ambulances will be equipped with stretchers, which can transport patients faster and more practical, directly when the ambulance to the patient area, can be pushed to the patient's room by pushing the stretcher. When you arrive at the hospital, you can push the stretcher directly to the hospital ward.
Some competitive sports are also prone to severe collisions between limbs and fractures. Stadiums such as stadiums can also be equipped with ambulance stretchers. Of course, this kind of stretcher will also be used in the field, and an ambulance can be driven directly to the scene so that it can be faster when rescuing the wounded.
When buying an reliable ambulance stretcher, since there are many manufacturers like this, you should also look at the manufacturer's production capacity through multiple comparisons before purchasing. If the manufacturer itself has a strong production capacity, it can also guarantee the quality of the stretcher.
Currently, the number of manufacturers producing stretchers is relatively large, so competition is fierce, not only in terms of technology but also in terms of price. To ensure that the stretcher purchased is highly practical and of guaranteed quality, we also need to take a look at the cost-performance ratio. If the manufacturer can sell according to direct sales, since direct sales do not have middlemen earn, and the price is cheaper, the user can make the price lower when buying.
If the manufacturer you choose cannot follow up on after-sales service, it proves that they do not dare to take responsibility for the quality of the stretchers they produce. When choosing a manufacturer to buy, you must see if after-sales service is in place. Anything that has after-sales service in place proves that the stretcher quality is relatively excellent. Buying from such manufacturers, because they have good after-sales service, users can only buy without worries.
Users, who need to buy an high performance ambulance stretcher, especially when buying a relatively large amount at a time, have learned the performance characteristics, the scope of application, and how to choose a manufacturer when purchasing this stretcher? As long as you buy stretchers according to your own needs at the time of purchase, and when selecting manufacturers, you can buy medical stretchers from approved manufacturers with confidence through comparison to see which one is in place in terms of production capacity, cost performance, and after-sales service.
