ABSTRACT:
A light tubular framework, attachable to a standard ambulance stretcher by known mechanical fittings, supports at least one shelf above a patient on the stretcher, to provide support for vital life support equipment that must accompany the patient as he or she is transported on the stretcher. The framework is structured to provide considerable bracing and secure mounting thereon of critical life support equipment, so that the stretcher may be safely moved over broken or uneven surfaces without dislodging the equipment. In one aspect of the invention, an aditional support surface is provided by readily detachable connection of a shelf-like element to the stretcher bracing crossbars adjacent its wheels to temporarily support heavy elements of equipment thereon. The height of the structure is selected such that, even with equipment mounted thereon, a stretcher improved by the addition of the invented apparatus can be readily loaded into or removed from a standard ambulance without any interference with parts threof by a single attendant.
