Ferno Kendrick Extrication Device
(K.E.D)
(The Most Popular Still Today)
The Original Ferno K.E.D.® is a versatile, improved means of
immobilizing and extricating patients from auto accidents or tight
spaces. The wrap-around design provides horizontal flexibility for
easy application and vertical rigidity for maximum support of the
spine, neck, and head during extrication. The K.E.D.® immobilizes
the torso, head and neck, enabling prompt extrication while
minimizing risks of further injury. X-rays or advanced life support
procedures can be performed with the K.E.D.® in place.
The Ferno K.E.D.® includes wrap-around vest, Adjusta-Pad neck
roll, two head straps and a carrying case. Heavy-duty, vinyl-coated
nylon is durable and easy to clean and the K.E.D. stores rolled up,
ready for immediate use.
