The Scoop Stretcher is a lightweight, X-ray compatible pick-up stretcher designed for efficient patient transport in pre-hospital, sports, and military settings.
The Scoop stretcher is designed specifically to extract and transport casualties who may have suspected spinal injuries or require protection or immobilisation during movement.
Ideal as a complement to a range of semi-rigid stretchers including the Chrysalis (MS01) and Pod (MS02).
When combined with one of these two stretchers they fully meet the requirements of the fatal accident determination recommendations for “Basket Stretchers and Spine Boards”.
The stretcher can be split apart and slid under a patient, minimising patient handling and the associated risks, in line with current pre-hospital casualty care guidance.
For first aid, medical applications and professional use in pre-hospital care.
The stretcher is compact, light and simple to use and clean. It is made of lightweight, durable materials that make it easy to transport and store and has built-in carrying handles for easy transport.
In order to maintain the patient’s correct alignment, it incorporates a recessed head section and is fully length adjustable with four settings and a double safety lock for easy locking and unlocking.
Constructed from durable polyethylene, this two-part separable stretcher features friction devices at both ends, allowing for easy separation and compact storage. Its concave shape significantly reduces patient movement during loading, minimising the risk of secondary injuries and providing support and stability.
Adjustable to four different positions, the Scoop accommodates patients of varying heights, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. The stretcher is easy to sterilise, making it ideal for environments where hygiene is paramount. With a load capacity of 200 kg, it is suitable for a wide range of patients.
Included with the stretcher are three restraint belts with quick-release buckles, ensuring secure immobilisation during transport. The exposed central area facilitates unobstructed radiographic assessments, allowing for prompt and accurate diagnostics without the need to move the patient.
