KED Strap Order - EMTLIFE
2008年12月28日 · It works on the same principle of keeping the pressure applied uniform so readjustment isn't needed, just a slightly different order.

KED vs. Spineboard | EMTLIFE
2012年8月24日 · 36. KED and Spineboard, are both retarded procedures/treatments. Notice there is not a single KED or spineboard in a hospital... They use collars thats it. 9/10 MVAs are total BS.

KED Station - EMTLIFE
2017年10月30日 · The only info you get is "pass" or "fail" and it is up to you to determine what might have gone wrong. So, the KED station basically stands between me and being a volunteer EMT.

**Using A Ked** - EMTLIFE
2008年8月20日 · KED good I was sold on a KED when it was put on me. Maybe KED has changed since 1981, but my experience was that they were the same length as a "standard" short board, acheived a much better cranial to thoracic alignment, more quickly than a short board if you do it right (keep track of your fasteners, just like a short board only easier)..you get the drift.
Backboarding a Hip fx | Page 2 - EMTLIFE
2013年9月11日 · Backboards are not spinal immobilization devices, they're extrication devices. You can choose to add head blocks, tape, towel rolls, a C-collar, spider straps, 9 foot straps, perhaps even a head bed...but it still has nothing to do with immobilization.
