Maximises patient immobilisation and aids with extrication and movement of a patient with suspected spinal issues.
The NEANN NIEJ is the latest result of continuous improvement on previous extrication jackets by RAPP Australia’s design team.
The NIEJ combines many of the best features of current extrication jackets on the market and removes many of the common complaints of users of earlier devices. Development of the design involved using the latest research in spinal management to provide an extremely effective and easy to apply cervical splint/extrication device.
With the provision of handles on the exterior of the jacket, this now provides improved manual handling and reducing risks of injury to both patient and paramedic.
The straps are colour coded and labelled, to reduce operator confusion and errors. Maintenance and cleaning instructions are provided with every NEANN NIEJ in accordance with Australian Standards (AS 4541 – 1994).
