ABSTRACT:
An adjustable extrication back brace for stabilizing the pelvic area, the wings or illiac crest, the shoulder area and the head so that the spine related to these portions of an accident victim's body can be held in a neutral position before substantial movement can or should be undertaken to remove the victim from the accident scene and in which the back brace comprises cooperating corrugated panels slidably interrelated for longitudinal adjustment, a cervical block positionable on one panel to fit the cervical curve, and a plurality of securing strap anchors spaced along the panels for retaining the victim in position with the back brace aligned against the vetertrael spine or mid-line of the back. The back brace panels are made small to be maneuvered into position where space and the body position makes access difficult.
