iTEC Manufacturing has developed the revolutionary new PAL, Patient Assist Lift, which acts like a BODY SPLINT.
It was designed by rescuers to reduce physical strain of workers and protect patients being lifted from any position.
The PAL allows EMS personnel and healthcare workers to lift and transport patients while utilizing proper body mechanics, thereby reducing muscle strain and back injury.
Key Benefits:
Quick to use – only 2 straps
Reduces muscle strain up to 50%
Effective way to splint hips – reduces patient pain and discomfort!
Reduces back injuries for rescuers and healthcare workers
Protects patients, especially with brittle bones, thin skin or open wounds.
Can be used in a variety of places – bathtubs, automobiles, planes, etc.
Can be used to carry patients around tight corners
Great for transferring patients from one place to another
The PAL is flexible and small enough to slide into confined areas.
Once tightened, it becomes rigid and supportive.
The PAL can also be used to maneuver around corners.
No getting stuck like with backboards.
The Pedi PAL provides complete encapsulation for infants and toddlers.
The PAL is rated for 400 lbs. but has been tested up to 1,250 lbs.
