Multi-Grip vs Other CID's
Cost effective / disposable Non-disposables are expensive to replace & require costly cleaners
Simple & ready to use Some CID's need assemply or have multiple steps before ready
No need to attach to backboards first or reposition which can move patient Sticky strips: can be placed in wrong position, repositioning compromises adhesive & leaves residue which dirt adheres to Velcro: attracts debris & becomes less effective
Works on all backboards, including baskets & scoops Most CID's will not work on all types of backboards
Waterproof, buoyant Some CID's lose stability when wet or soiled
Works in a variety of unique & critical situations: motorcycle/race-car/football helmets, infant car seats, etc Many immobilizers will not work in these important situations
The Multi-Grip's exclusive head strap has stategically placed foam strips - strap sticks to backboard but NOT to patient's hair/skin Most straps stick to patient's hair, eyebrows and skin which can later cause pain, discomfort and/or allergic reaction to adhesive
100 % latex free Not all CID's are 100% latex free
Can be written on for quick notation Unable to write on all CID's

 


The Multi-Grip can be used in a carseat with infants.
