ABSTRACT:
A CPR backboard is provided with a pair of straps disposed on opposite ends of the backboard, the straps being attached to hooks attachable to a bed frame. The straps are provided with adjustable self-locking buckles. In use, a mattress is placed between the backboard and a bed frame with the opposed hooks hooking opposite sides of the bed frame with the mattress disposed therebetween. The straps are adjustable to compress the mattress between the backboard and the bed frame with the self-locking buckle maintaining the straps at a preselected compressing position thereby providing for a firm surface on which chest compressions can be performed upon a patient.
