The Half-Sked is made of the same durable material as the Sked stretcher, but is only half as long.
The patient is secured in the Half-Sked with sewn-in two inch webbing straps with fastex style double adjustable buckles, and patients can be extricated from the tightest of confined spaces.
Allows the patient to bend at the hips, allowing greater flexibility to turn corners.
Should not be used as a hoisting or immobilization device, but for cost effective extrication from the most demanding confined spaces.
