*Ambulance Stretcher

An ambulance stretcher is a piece of medical equipment used to carry a person while lying down. Specifically designed to be transported in an ambulance, it is used in conjunction with its facilities. An ambulance stretcher is deployed from an ambulance upon reaching an injured person who requires lifting and transporting to hospital. It can be carried by two paramedics, one at each end, and is often attached to a wheelbase to be pushed along on wheels.

*Portable stretcher.

This type of stretcher is also known as a folding or flat stretcher. it is much lighter than a standard wheeled stretcher and makes the task of moving a patient down stairs or out of tight spaces much easier.

The folding stretcher is also called a collapsible stretcher. These foldable stretchers are used to carry the patient safely and with the comfort who are not able to walk. These stretchers have two poles that can be folded and that's why this stretcher is easy to carry in the ambulance for emergency purposes.

*Stair Stretcher

The stair chair helps rescuers move seated medical patients down stair ways and through tight places where a traditional stretcher will not fit. newer brands are made of sturdy folding frames with either canvas or hard plastic seats and are easy to store.

*Basket stretcher

The Basket Stretcher is designed to cover most of emergency resue situations. It's made of high resistive material and it has many handholds, which make it ideal for quick and safe transfer.

Includes 3 safety belts, foam pad for patient comfort, adjustable feet-securing mechanism for vertical lifting and special rings for Bridle. By using it with the Four Point Bridle (not included), it is ideal for aerial rescue.

*Scoop stretcher

This device is typically made of hard plastic or aluminum. it is called a scoop stretcher because it splits vertically into two pieces, which can be used to scoop the patient up.

*Spine Board

Spine boards are also known as backboards.A spinal board, is a patient handling device used primarily in pre-hospital trauma care. It is designed to provide rigid support during movement of a person with suspected spinal or limb injuries. They are most commonly used by ambulance staff, as well as lifeguards and ski patrollers. Historically, backboards were also used in an attempt to "improve the posture" of young people, especially girls.Due to lack of evidence to support long-term use, the practice of keeping people on long boards for prolonged periods of time is decreasing.
