Plastic Scoop Stretcher – Adjustable Length – X-Ray Translucent – 159kg Capacity – With 3 Safety Straps

Safe and Practical Patient Transfer Solution for Suspected Spinal Injuries

The Plastic Scoop Stretcher is designed for the safe handling and transfer of patients with suspected spinal or neck injuries. Its two-piece construction allows it to separate smoothly, sliding beneath the patient with minimal movement to reduce the risk of further harm. Built from high-strength, lightweight plastic using an integrated moulding process, it offers excellent durability and is easy to clean after use.

The stretcher’s design maintains correct spinal alignment, featuring a recessed head section and adjustable length to suit patients of different heights. Non-slip surfaces and three safety straps help keep the patient securely in position throughout transfer.

Made from X-ray translucent materials, the stretcher can remain in place during imaging procedures, avoiding unnecessary movement. Its narrow frame and low profile make it suitable for use in confined spaces, while the fluid-resistant polymer surface supports good hygiene in demanding environments.

This stretcher provides a reliable solution for emergency responders and workplaces required under HSE guidance to have equipment ready for safe patient handling in the event of head, neck, or spinal injuries.
