ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises a stretcher. The stretcher has an elongated rectangular frame and a U shaped frame with the ends of its legs pivotally mounted to the inside of the rectangular frame to pivot from a flush position inside and parallel with the rectangular frame to an upward angular position in relation to the rectangular frame to serve as a back rest for a patient upon the stretcher. A fluid actuated piston and cylinder are pivotally connected between the rectangular frame and the pivotable U frame to pivot the U frame to an upward angle relative to the rectangular frame. Slidable panels are slidably mounted on the U frame and rectangular frame to slide laterally away from the frame to provide an adjustable arm rest for a patient upon the stretcher.
