Description APLS Thermal Guard is a portable and disposable absorbent litter that provides maximum thermal protection during emergency transport. APLS Thermal Guard provides an int egrated system for improved patient care: the highly absorbent cellulose core wicks fluids away from the patient, the fleece-lined bag and detachable hood retains body heat, and the treated nylon backing protects against wind and moisture. Two closable “L” shaped access points enable the patient to retain body heat while being treated by medical personnel. For added thermal protection, optional internal pockets provide a “heat zone” in four key areas when used with a mobile heat source. APLS Thermal Guard can retain 4.5 liters of bodily fluid while safely supporting up to 450 pounds. Two pockets inside the bag hold patient documents, x-ray disks and personal effects NSN 6530-01-562-6008 Features Built-in thermal properties for warmth during transport Contains up to 4.5 liters of blood and bodily fluid Leak proof nylon backing Closable access points aide with patient treatment and warmth Lightweight, rugged, strong Eight handles for easy transport Bottom straps secure to litters Locker for patient documents Detachable hood component Compressed vacuum packed Specifications Weights & Dimensions: Dimensions: 33" x 91" (83.82 cm x 231.14 cm) Weight: 6.60 - 6.65 lbs. dry weight (2.99 - 3.2 kg) Pad Thickness: 0.2250" (0.57 cm) Target Absorbency: (H2O): 4,500-5,000 grams (target = 4,750 grams, or 4.5 liters) Capacity: 420 - 450 lbs.
