• Fluid and immediate Log Roll maneuver: The thickness reduced to just 5 mm allows the board to be inserted under the patient’s body with minimum friction, facilitating the lateral rotation technique.
• Diagnostic continuity without movement: The total absence of metal components makes the device entirely radiotranslucent, allowing direct access to C.T. scans and MRI without having to move the trauma victim.
• Speed of securing: The patented system with two sliding and integral side rails allows the board to be locked and stiffened in moments, ensuring timely action at the accident scene.
• Extreme lightness for rescuers: With a weight of just 4.6 kg due to the carbon fiber, it significantly reduces the load to be carried on foot, especially in mountain rescue missions or in steep territories.
• Optimized bulk for compact vehicles: Being foldable in two parts, it halves the space occupied on board helicopters, medical motorcycles, or ambulances, where storage space is strictly limited.
• Perfect integration with helicopter rescue: The shape of the structure is specifically designed to interface with modern hoisting slings, increasing the efficiency of vertical aerial recoveries.

This revolutionary carbon fiber spinal board finds its ideal placement in emergency and intensive rescue services managed by helicopter rescue departments, medical motorcycle crews, resuscitation ambulances, mountain rescue teams, and civil protection units in inaccessible areas. Thanks to the dimensions of 181 x 42 cm, the foldable structure, and total radiological compatibility, it is the perfect tool for first aid interventions in mountain environments, road accidents with suspected spinal cord injuries, and rapid evacuation scenarios where the patient needs to be stabilized and transported directly to the hospital X-ray rooms without undergoing secondary manipulation.

The h1046_07 model represents the correct choice when planning emergency services requires a high-performance, ultra-lightweight (4.6 kg) spinal board that occupies minimal storage space thanks to its folding body. It is vastly preferable to traditional plastic spinal boards, which are bulky and flexible, as the structural carbon fiber offers absolute rigidity with a thickness of only 5 mm, optimizing delicate Log Roll maneuvers in the field. Choosing this patented device, developed and produced in Italy according to the European parameters established by EU Regulation 2017/745, means adopting a versatile and safe tool, approved for helicopter rescue and ready for advanced diagnostics (C.T. scan and MRI) without operational interruptions, as confirmed by the survey geometries in the file image_556fac.png.

How does the reduced thickness of this carbon spinal board affect the safety and stability of the traumatized patient?

Unlike standard plastic models that require high thicknesses to avoid flexing, carbon fiber guarantees excellent structural rigidity in just 5 mm of thickness. This ultra-thin profile significantly reduces the angular displacement and lifting necessary to insert the device under the injured person’s body, optimizing the execution of the “Log Roll” maneuver and minimizing the risks of secondary trauma to the spine.

Is it possible to subject the patient to X-rays, C.T. scans, or MRI while keeping them locked on this spinal board?

Yes, the device was designed specifically for this clinical need. Being totally free of metal components or inserts, the carbon material is 100% radio-transparent. This allows the injured person to be inserted directly into state-of-the-art diagnostic machinery (including MRI and C.T. scan equipment) immediately after arrival at the emergency room, eliminating the need to transfer the patient to another surface before the exams and protecting the stability of the spine, in compliance with the standards of EU Regulation 2017/745.
