ABSTRACT:
A device for transporting disabled or sick persons comprises a stretcher mattress attachable to a stretcher frame or a transport vehicle by means of a belt band emerging from the underside of the foot end of said mattress. Belt bands which issue at the head end of the upper side of said mattress in the vicinity of its central longitudinal axis and interact with additional belt bands projecting laterally in the middle area from the edge of said mattress result in secure support of the disabled or sick person during transport on his back or side and allow the attending physician unimpeded access to the subject's thorax. Bracings located beneath said mattress and connected to one another by means of hinges allow the subject to be transported in close quarters. There are furthermore provided wedge-shaped cushions forming a bolstered edge portion, under which cushions a sheet to be placed on said mattress can be inserted without removing the belts.
