Sked basic rescue kit - stretcher & accessories (7 items)

Discover the Sked brand’s basic rescue kit, a complete solution for emergency situations, including 7 types of essential items.

The uniquely designed Sked stretcher is lightweight and flexible. It rolls up completely to be carried in the backpack, and unrolls quickly, regaining its rigidity. When a casualty is attached, the stretcher curves to the sides to protect the victim (similar to a “shell” or “scoop” mattress).

This Sked rescue kit is recommended for all rescue situations, but is particularly well suited to rescue in confined spaces and in urban, industrial or military environments. It is also ideal for rescue at height, as a victim placed on the stretcher can be lifted vertically.

The ideal kit for equipping rescuers, first-aiders, patrollers, paramedics and all other professionals involved in search and/or emergency health care on land.

This kit is designed to provide a rapid and effective response to rescue or evacuation situations, offering maximum safety for rescuers and victims alike. The kit includes a Sked stretcher, renowned for its sturdiness and flexibility, enabling safe immobilization and transport of the patient. It also includes lifting straps, a rescue harness, protective equipment and other essential tools for emergency interventions.

What's the difference between a stretcher and a scoop mattress ?

Stretcher definition :

A stretcher is a support, often made up of canvas and a frame, used to transport an injured person without the need for immobilization. On this product, the stretcher is made of flexible plastic designed for rescue in confined or enclosed spaces.

Definition of a scoop mattress :

A scoop mattress is generally referred to as a "vacuum immobilization mattress." It is used to compress the body of a victim of trauma to the spine, pelvis or hips, using Styrofoam balls. This prevents movement and the risk of worsening injuries.

Combine stretchers and immobilizing mattresses for optimal transport :

It's important to combine the stretcher and vacuum immobilizing mattress for transporting injured people with spinal and pelvic trauma.

You can adapt your equipment to suit your needs and the situations you encounter.

We have, for example, this head immobilizer (PS791), which can be combined with the Sked basic rescue kit.
