- Abstract
Reclaimed PPE fabric materials are transformed into emergency stretchers whereby the fabric materials are derived, joined, locked and finally inserted onto a support structure to create a stretcher which can be used in different frontline emergency situations to move affected and incapacitated individuals to safety and medical intervention. Extra features such as retroreflective bands can be added to give the product a unique advantage in low-visibility and disarrayed emergency environments.
