Reeves Sleeve II

Reeves Sleeve II

Reeves Sleeve II is used by members of the U.S. Navy during extreme rescue situations. A unique product that converts a full size backboard into a patient immobilization device to be used for vertical and horizontal lifting. Excellent medical access. Perfect device for confined space rescue because it fits over the backboard. DOES NOT CAUSE FEET TO ANGLE OUTWARD as do popular plastic lifting devices. Sleeve material is a vinyl laminated nylon that meets Mil Spec C 4300 Type 1, Class 1 anti-fungal vinyl and is resistant to acids, alkalies, and liquids. Lifting straps are constructed from 6,000 lbf tensile strength webbing. One (1) vertical lift point and four (4) horizontal lift points for helicopter hoist capability allow the Reeves™ Sleeve II to hoist patients from any angle. A storage pocket for the hoist cables is built into the Sleeve. Ten (10) padded carry handles allow personnel to maneuver through the narrowest of openings. For additional support, the Reeves™ Sleeve II includes a reinforced bottom, removable Velcro head-securing blocks, adjustable head- and chin-securing straps, a chest- and arm-securing flap with Velcro, a leg-securing flap with Velcro and a spine board compartment for added strength and rigidity. Five (5) chest and leg straps and a "fail-safe" strap with plastic buckles are added for additional security.
