LSP Half Back Extrication

LSP Half Back Extrication / Lift Harness

The LSP Half Back Extrication / Lift Harness is a versatile, lightweight and durable short body immobilization board designed for suspected cervical/spinal injuries during confined space extrication (such as auto, storage tank, ships, etc.) The Half Back comes complete with a full head harness and an optional helmet harness for helmeted victims, both of which are compatible for use with the Miller Full Body Splint/Litter.

Six strategically located handles allow for easy maneuverability of the victim. Also, the quick release hook and loop storage pockets neatly house all straps until needed during rescue.

The Half Back features an aluminum back-stay anatomically designed for the cervical portion of the spinal column. This unique design eliminates the need for any roll or extra padding to support the victims head, and it will not interfere with cervical x-rays

The optional Vertical Lift Strap Assembly allows the Half Back to be used in two distinctly different ways. First, with the aluminum back-stay in place, the Half Back will vertically lift a suspected cervical/spinal injury victim during confined space extrication. (Vertical lifting of this type of victim is not recommended unless no other means are evident.) Secondly, the Half Back can be quickly converted into a vertical liftl extrication/rescue harness simply by removing the aluminum back-stay. This unique feature allows the Half Back to be used as a safety harness for rescue personnel as well as a vertical lift harness for the victim when cervical/spinal injuries are not suspected.

The interior of the Half Back is a non-absorbent, closed-cell foam. The outer covering consists of a tough, stain-resistant, washable junior ballistic nylon which provides protection and comfort to the victim and rescue person
