XtractSR
The Xtract®SR is a rescue litter designed for operators to quickly move the combat casualty from point of wounding to definitive medical care. Unlike traditional stretchers, the Xtract®SR provides a padded fabric cocoon for the casualty to keep them warm, comfortable and accessible. Casualties can then be lifted or pulled across challenging environments maximising patient care and operator safety.
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.

"The Xtract™SR Stretcher has travelled with me from Argentina to Afghanistan and is worth its weight in gold. Practical, lightweight, extremely robust, the stretcher has enabled me to securely package and extract patients from challenging situations, whilst simultaneously contributing to hypothermia prevention."
