1/35 Spine Boards

Set contains four resin elements and photoetched part in 1/35 scale. Long spine board (LSB) is device used for handling wounded in pre-hospital care. LSBs are designed to provide rigid support during transport of a patient to avoid further injuries. Most commonly are used by ambulance staff as well as by specialised emergency personnel. Spine boards are typically made of plastic, buoyant, completely X-ray translucent and light enough to be carried by one person. LSBs are designed to be slightly wider and longer than the average human body for immobilization straps fitting and handles for carrying the patient. This kind of LSBs are mostly used by civilian emergency services as well as by ad hoc equipped units, militias or paramilitary groups. Most common are vivid red or orange but blue, yellow or olive green can be seen. Immobilization straps are mostly orange or black and buckles are made from metal or black plastic.
