The Casualty's Perspective

"The overall feeling of safety whilst in the Xtract™SR Stretcher is of huge benefit to any casualty being removed from any scene."

Sean Gittings, above-knee amputee

The development of the Xtract™SR Stretcher started following the experiences of militaries in Afghanistan and Iraq. Exposure of troops to improvised explosive devices led to an increased number of casualties presenting with above or below-knee amputations. Evacuation using legacy equipment from the point-of-wounding created secondary injuries and compromised life-saving treatments. The Xtract™SR Stretcher provides solutions to these challenges.

The size and the weight of the Xtract™SR Stretcher allows it to be carried by combat troops and rescuers, making it immediately available. Its patented design cocoons casualties, protects treatment and minimises movement. These features improve the outcome prospects of a casualty.

Strength and durability are at the core of the design of the Xtract™SR Stretcher. Duralite fabric creates a lightweight, immensely strong and durable solution that copes with any operational environment.

The Xtract™SR Stretcher is a modular system that can be scaled to your mission requirements. Whatever the obstacles, the Xtract™SR Stretcher provides a solution.
