ABSTRACT:
A mobile device for transporting patients in the field is power adjustable and includes a frame having a terrain engaging portion connected to a patient supporting portion. The patient supporting portion is height adjustable between a first position adjacent the terrain engaging portion and a second position remote from the terrain engaging portion. A self-contained power device is connected to the frame for adjusting the height of the patient supporting portion relative to the terrain engaging portion. An actuator is operably connected for actuating the self contained power device whereby manual adjustment of the patient supporting portion relative to the terrain engaging portion is avoided. The patient supporting portion has a plurality of sections adjustable relative to each other. The self-contained power device provides adjustment for the sections independently of each other and independently of the height adjustment.
