The XTRA® X-Ray Translucent Rigid Backboard is one of the most significant developments in patient transport. For several years, many backboards have been designed on the basis of x-ray translucence (radio-transparency) instead of rigidity, at the expense of patient safety.
XTRA® has been designed to provide the ultimate in x-ray translucence with the rigidity that is needed to protect the patient from further injury.
At 71 in long x 15.75 in wide x 1.85 in deep, and weighing just 15 pounds, XTRA® fits into standard storage areas and is easily carried to the patient.
The smooth surface allows for easy cleaning and disinfecting, while the construction of the XTRA® prevents the intrusion of liquids into the board.
