Victim evacuation techniques in emergency conditions

The victim at the scene of the incident very often requires evacuation from the danger area to the safe area or from the incident area to the hospital. The choice of technique depends on the number of rescuers available and the condition of the victim, with particular emphasis on serious and life-threatening injuries. Evacuation can take place without the use of equipment when the rescuer or rescuers carry the victim on their own hands. The optimal solution, especially for trauma patients, is to evacuate them using equipment that allows stabilization of the whole body and safe handling of the injured in vertical and horizontal planes
