Patient Immobilization: Always ensure that all adjustable straps are tightened according to medical protocols to prevent patient movement within the basket. The contoured design should be utilized to support the natural alignment of the body.

Lifting Safety: Due to the 15kg weight of the unit plus the weight of the patient, rescuers should use proper lifting techniques and coordinate movements to prevent injury to the rescue team.

Maintenance & Cleaning

Cleaning: After use in field conditions, clean the stretcher with a mild disinfectant solution to remove debris, mud, or biological contaminants.
Inspection: Regularly inspect all straps, buckles, and the structural integrity of the basket for signs of wear, fraying, or cracks.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of plastic or strap components.
