ABSTRACT:
A spinal restraint includes a rigid board and a flat, elongated strap for tying a patient to the board. The strap includes means for attachment to the board on both ends of the strap and is length-adjustable. The board has a spacer which holds the board slightly above a flat surface upon which it is placed. The patient is quickly and securely tied to the board by lacing the strap from side to side over the patient, progressively placing portions of the strap into diagonal slots extending inwards from the periphery of the board. The strap or straps is ultimately secured at the patient's shoulders. At the shoulders the strap is placed over portions of a head restraint pad extending onto the patient's shoulders. The system, including the board, strap and head restraint is length-adjustable to accommodate patients of various sizes.
