The "Only" Complete Rescue System
OREGON SPINE SPLINT II
(OSS)
FACT SHEET
- The only vest type
device on the market that meets all of the established
criteria for immobilization of the seated patient.
- Easy to train with -
comes with comprehensive, medically correct, and easy to
read instructions.
- Faster to apply than
other immobilizers
- Allows defibrillation,
EKG monitoring, and all other pre-hospital diagnostic and
treatment procedures without compromising immobilization.
- Immobilizes without
compromising breathing.
- Does not allow patient
to move up or down in device, preventing compression and
elongation of the cervical spine.
- Groin straps do not
occlude genitalia or cause pain when patient is laid
down.
- Unique collar strap
design provides for maximum immobilization without
affecting the free movement of the jaw, allowing the
patient to vomit safely.
- Immobilization of head
and cervical spine is extremely good. When used with a
SKED stretcher, is the same as a long backboard.
- Shoulder straps can
criss-cross upper chest or be positioned to retract
shoulders for clavicle fractures.
- Made of better
materials and outlasts competing products. Can be cleaned
with common bleach solutions.
- Employs non-slip
disposable pads on the forehead restraint.
- Extra wide velcro on
forehead strap insures secure immobilization.
- Firm flat pads behind
the head replace the common soft neck roll, preventing
accidental hyperextension and loosening of head straps
when the patient is laid down.
- Compact size for
storage requires about half the storage space required
for other vest type devices. Can even be stored inside
a rolled-up SKED stretcher.
- The OSS is X-ray
lucent - patient can be x-rayed with the device in place.
- When used with a SKED
stretcher, allows extrication from the smallest confined
spaces where other devices cannot work.
