900WT Wind Turbine Spec Pak - w/ 905WT Lifting Bridle

Patient packaging and extrication system combine the backboard immobilization of a shortboard with the suspension and support of a full-body harness.
The Spec Pak system utilizes an integrated polyethylene board along the back to reduce wear and create a smooth sliding surface for confined space operations. (Skid Board dimensions 9" x 33").  Grab handles located at the head and sides allow rescuers to better handle the patient package during movement through tight spaces.  Extremely useful for any confined space operation where a vertical environment is encountered. In addition, the Spec Pak system is a lifting harness, thus eliminating the need for a separate victim harness. Unique self-adjusting (sliding) cervical restraint eliminates the problems   ssociated with lifting patients vertically while secured to a rigid backboard. Storage bag provided equipped with a shoulder strap for carrying and top connection point for lowering without a patient in the device. Spec Pak is only intended as a limited spinal immobilization system. It must be used in conjunction with proper spinal immobilization such as the use of a cervical collar where conditions and protocols dictate. Designed by Spec Rescue International and Yates Professional. Weight 15 lbs.

The 900WT is a standard Spec Pak (900) plus the Wind Turbine Bridle system (905WT) instead of the standard bridle.  The key differences are the inclusion of the Yates Spreader Bar (905SPREADER) and a singular mid sternum adjustment strap.

The use of Lifting bridle is recommended for use in most lifting operations. The upper D ring attachment should only be used for short duration lifts, ideally 5 minutes or less.  Exceeding this is uncomfortable for the patient and increases the likelihood of suspension trauma.

The 900WT includes the following accessories which can also be ordered as replacement parts as needed:

• 905WT lifting bridle w/ leg support sling

• Adjustable head and chin straps (900HEADSTRAP)

• Handcuff restraints (900HANDCUFF)

• Durable weather resistant carrying bag (900CARRYBAG)
